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

Non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) severity is difficult only with electrocardiogram (ECG). In most cases, NSTEMI patients are followed with cardiac enzymes without early invasive intervention if no severe chest pain exists in the emergency department (ED) or coronary intensive care unit (CICU).Our aim was to evaluate association between CAD severity and ST segment change in lead aVR (STaVR)/T wave amplitude in lead aVR (TAaVR) ratio in patients with NSTEMI.We included 306 patients with NSTEMI in the ED between 2015 and 2016. STaVR and TAaVR values were measured from 12-derivation ECG underwent on admission to the ED. The absolute values of STaVR and TAaVR were calculated and the following were obtained; ratio 1:|STaVR|/|TAaVR|, ratio 2:|TAaVR|/|STaVR|, and ratio 3: by dividing the variable with larger absolute value to other variable with smaller absolute value (|larger value|/|smaller value|). The SYNTAX score (SS) was calculated from coronary angiography in all patients.In analysis of the bivariate correlation between SS and ratios; significantly positive, strongly with ratio 3 (r = 0.692, P < .001), and only ratio 3 was determined to be an independent predictor for SS in linear regression analysis (OR: 0.642, 95% CI: 0.432-0.853, P = .001).Severity of CAD may be estimated by evaluating STaVR and TAaVR ratio in patients with NSTEMI.
