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

objectiveNesfatin-1 is a novel anorectic neuropeptide with potent metabolic regulatory effects. It regulates blood pressure, heart rate, cardiomyocyte metabolism and permeability. SYNTAX score, which is an angiographic scoring system, defines the grade and complexity of coronary artery disease (CAD). We aimed to evaluate the relationship between nesfatin-1 level and severity of CAD according to the SYNTAX score in patients with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI).

methodsA total of 109 subjects were enrolled into the study, of whom 80 underwent coronary angiography (CA) with the diagnosis of NSTEMI and 29 had normal coronary arteries detected in CA. NSTEMI patients were divided into 2 groups: low SYNTAX score (< 32) (45 patients) and high SYNTAX score (≥ 32) (35 patients).

resultsThe NSTEMI patients with a high SYNTAX score (score ≥ 32) had a lower serum nesfatin-1 level (62 pg/ml; 39-98) compared to the NSTEMI patients with a low SYNTAX score (score < 32) (138 pg/ml; 65-286) and the control group (392 pg/ml; 178-1320). There was also a negative correlation between serum nesfatin-1 level and SYNTAX score (r = -0.594, p < 0.001). A lower serum level of nesfatin-1 (odds ratio = 0.116; 95% confidence interval: 0.138- 0.094; p < 0.001) was an independent predictor for high SYNTAX score in the NSTEMI patients after multiple linear regression analysis.

conclusionsSerum nesfatin-1 level was lower in the high SYNTAX group than in the low SYNTAX group in patients with NSTEMI. Nesfatin-1could have a role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic burden in patients with NSTEMI.
