1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundThe applicability of manual aspiration thrombectomy in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been a challenging issue. This study aimed to compare the impact of additive manual thrombectomy on patients with myocardial infarction (MI) and total cutoff vessel with standard primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) with bailout thrombectomy.

methodsIn this case-control study, 181 patients with acute STEMI were enrolled who referred to Chamran Hospital (Isfahan, Iran) between August to December 2014. The culprit lesion was treated with routine PPCI with bailout thrombectomy (111 patients) and routine primary thrombectomy then percutaneous coronary intervention [(PCI), 70 patients] during hospitalization and one month after discharge. Patients in the case group received manual thrombectomy before PPCI and patients in the control group received standard PPCI with bailout thrombectomy. Patients were followed during the study procedure, post-hospitalization and one month later for cardiovascular outcomes including death, recurrent MI, stroke, major bleeding, post PCI arrhythmia, no reflow, thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI)-flow and TIMI myocardial blush grade (TMBG), which were assessed and recorded.

resultsMyocardial perfusion and angiographic outcomes had no significant differences in the two groups (P = 0.730). There was also no significant difference in no reflow prevalence between the two groups (P > 0.990). There were no significant differences for primary outcomes such as death, stroke, major bleeding and arrhythmia between the two groups (P < 0.050). In particular, outcomes were the same for both groups during hospitalization period and one month after discharge. Mortality rate during hospitalization was 5.7% for the control group and 4.5% for the case group (P = 0.730). However, one-month mortality rate was quite similar in both groups.

conclusionThis study showed there is no significant difference in cardiovascular outcomes such as death, stroke, bleeding, arrhythmia, target vessel revascularization, and distal embolization during hospitalization and one month after discharge in patients with acute MI and total cutoff of the involved vessel, who underwent PPCI with and without primary Export® aspiration catheter direct thrombosuction.
