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

backgroundTakotsubo syndrome (TS) usually involves ECG changes mimicking acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The differentiation of both disorders is crucial for selection of appropriate treatment. The aim of this study was to assess ECG parameters in patients with TS and AMI, and try to establish a scoring tool for TS prediction.

methodsThe study consisted of two study parts: evaluation and validation cohorts. Overall, the study included 82 patients with TS and 141 subjects with AMI. In addition to the major demographic characteristics and comorbidities, the following ECG parameters were analyzed: heart rate, QRS duration, QTc, QRS amplitudes in frontal and precordial leads, frequencies for ST-segment elevation, combined sign of positive ST-segment elevation in -aVR and absent in V

resultsTS was frequently diagnosed in women and in elderly patients. Presence of ST-segment elevation, inverted/biphasic T-waves in V

conclusionThe developed ECG-based TS-score model may be a useful complimentary tool for TS prediction in acute clinical setting.
