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.
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
introductionThe extent of peripheral artery disease (PAD) measured by the ankle-brachial index (ABI) and intima-media thickness (IMT) is correlated with the complexity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in stable angina patients. However, data regarding patients with acute coronary syndromes are still lacking.
aimTo compare coronary complexity measured by the SYNTAX score in patients with and without PAD presenting with myocardial infarction (MI). MATERIAL AND
methodsBoth ABI and IMT were measured in 101 consecutive patients who underwent primary diagnostic due to MI. Patients were divided into three tertile groups depending on the SYNTAX score (0-4; 5-11; 12 and more points).
resultsMean ABI in the general population was 0.9 ±0.26, mean IMT was 0.8 ±0.3 mm and mean SYNTAX score was 7.8 ±5.4 points. We found significant correlations between ABI and SYNTAX score (
conclusionsBoth IMT and ABI are correlated with SYNTAX score (positively for IMT and negatively for ABI values). In our study, IMT was a better predictor of SYNTAX score than ABI. Our study suggests that the higher rate of cardiovascular events in patients with PAD presenting with MI may be partially explained by greater coronary lesion complexity.
