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

The present study investigated the clinical significance of changes in levels of hypersensitive plasma pentraxin-3 (PTX3), hemoglobin A1c (HbAlc) and apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA1)/apolipoprotein B (ApoB) on patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM). After admission, 100 patients diagnosed with AMI combined with T2DM were selected as Group A. According to the level of fasting blood glucose (FBG), they were then subdivided into Group A1 (n=44) with FBG ≥13.0 mmol/l and Group A2 (n=56) with FBG <13.0 mmol/l. A total of 100 hospitalized patients with AMI in People's Hospital of Dongying (Dongying, China) were collected as Group B, and 100 healthy people receiving physical examination in the Physical Examination Center of People's Hospital of Dongying were selected as Group C. Serum PTX3, HbAlc and ApoA1/ApoB of all the study participants were tested, and diseased coronary artery vessels were divided into single-, double- and triple-vessel lesions according to their numbers. Logistic regression analysis was performed for the number of diseased coronary artery vessels and each index. The level of PTX3 in Group A1 was higher than that in Group A2; the level of ApoA1/ApoB in the former was lower than that in the latter (P<0.05); and the level of HbAlc in the former was significantly higher than that in the latter (P<0.01); the levels of PTX3 and HbA1c in Group A2 were higher than those in Group B, while the level of ApoA1/ApoB in the former was lower than that in the latter (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the number of diseased coronary artery vessels was positively correlated with PTX3 and HbA1c, but negatively correlated with ApoA1/ApoB. PTX3, HbAlc and ApoA1/apoB have a certain clinical significance in assessing the severity of AMI combined with T2DM.
