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

aimWe investigated whether indoxyl sulfate (IS), a protein-bound uremic toxin, predicts prognosis after acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

methodsSerum IS level was determined prospectively in 98 patients who underwent successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention for ACS. Patients on hemodialysis were excluded. The endpoint of this study was six-month composite events including death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, heart failure requiring hospitalization, and adverse bleeding events.

resultsDuring the mean follow-up period of 168 days, composite events occurred in 13.3% of cases. Serum IS level was significantly higher in subjects who developed composite events than in those without events (0.14±0.11 mg/dl vs. 0.06±0.04 mg/dl; p<0.001). After adjusting for confounding factors, a Cox proportional hazard analysis revealed that the IS level (hazard ratio (HR): 10.6; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.63-69.3, p=0.01), hemoglobin level (HR: 0.61; 95% CI: 0.43-0.87; p<0.01), and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (HR: 0.95; 95% CI: 0.91-0.99; p=0.03) were independent predictive factors of composite events. Furthermore, IS level significantly conferred additional value to the combined established risks of LVEF and hemoglobin level for predicting the incidence of composite events (area under the curve: 0.82 vs. 0.88, p=0.01; net reclassification improvement: 0.67, p=0.01; and integrated discrimination improvement: 0.15, p<0.01).

conclusionsThe assessment of serum IS level has prognostic utility for the management of ACS.
