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

backgroundThere are no studies of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) treatment examining outcome in unselected real-life patients with myocardial infarction (MI) and heart failure (HF). There is uncertainty regarding effects of MRA in relation to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The aim was to assess MRA use and compare outcomes in MI patients with HF in relation to LVEF and CKD. METHODS AND

resultsPatients with MI and HF registered in the Swedish myocardial infarction registry, SWEDEHEART, 2005-2014, were included. Associations between MRA use and all-cause mortality up to 3 years were assessed with multivariable Cox regression, stratified by EF groups and presence of CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min per 1.73 m

conclusionsIn patients with MI and HF, MRA use was associated with better long-term survival in patients with LVEF <40% but not in those with LVEF ≥50%, while the mortality risk was similar in MRA-treated patients with or without CKD.
