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

backgroundLeft ventricular (LV) remodeling has adverse effects on the prognosis of patients with myocardial infarction (MI). The aim of this study is to identify the risk factors of LV remodeling in MI patients by radionuclide myocardial imaging. METHODS AND

resultsThis retrospective study consisted of 92 patients who had a history of definite prior MI on ECG and underwent both resting gated single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and positron emission tomography (PET) myocardial metabolism imaging. LV remodeling was defined as > mean + 2SD of LV end-diastolic volume index (LVEDVi) in the normal database. LV enlargement, cardiac dysfunction, wall thickening abnormalities expressed as summed thickening score (STS) were more severe in the old MI patients as compared to those with subacute MI. STS (Odds ratio, 1.296; P = .004) and the proportion of segments with reduced wall thickening in segments with normal perfusion (Odds ratio, 1.110; P = .001) were identified as the independent factors of LV remodeling in subacute and old MI patients in the multivariate binary regression model. Total perfusion deficit (TPD), viable myocardium, scar, and the proportion of segments with reduced wall thickening in segments with decreased perfusion showed strong correlation with LV remodeling in the univariate regression model as well.

conclusionsLV remodeling in old MI patients is more extensive and severe than that in subacute MI patients. LV wall thickening abnormalities as expressed by STS and the proportion of segments with reduced wall thickening in segments with normal perfusion are the independent risk factors of LV remodeling in MI patients.
