Ischemic Modified Albumin Predicts Critical Coronary Artery Disease in Unstable Angina Pectoris and Non-ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine research, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
backgroundIn this study, whether ischemia modified albumin (IMA) has a role in showing severity or criticality of coronary arteries in patients with unstable angina pectoris (USAP)/non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) was assessed.
methodsA total of 65 patients (40 male (M) and 25 female (F) patients; mean age 59.7 ± 12.1 years) with the initial diagnosis of USAP/NSTEMI were included in this study. The levels of IMA, troponin T, creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), C-reactive protein (CRP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), creatinine, lipid panel, and whole blood count were measured from venous blood obtained from each patient within 3 h after the onset of symptoms. A 50% or greater coronary lumen stenosis of any coronary vessel or lateral branch was considered as critical stenosis. The severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) was assessed using the Gensini scoring system.
resultsIMA was significantly higher in patients with critical coronary artery stenosis (median, 206 vs. 23; P < 0.001). There was a weak correlation between the Gensini score and IMA; whereas there was a moderate correlation between the Gensini score and BNP levels (r = 0.44, P = 0.02).
conclusionThe level of IMA can predict the criticality of CAD; however, it cannot predict the severity of CAD according to Gensini score in patients with USAP/NSTEMI.
