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

purposeTo assess the contemporary use of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) receptor inhibitors in acute coronary syndrome at a large, quaternary academic medical center.

methodsA retrospective observational study was conducted using health records to compare patients who were treated with ticagrelor (Brilinta, AstraZeneca), prasugrel, or clopidogrel for a primary diagnosis of new-onset acute coronary syndrome between January 2014 and December 2014.

resultsA total of 275 patients were identified. Clopidogrel was the most commonly prescribed ADP receptor antagonist (52%), followed by ticagrelor (26%) and prasugrel (22%). Patients who were prescribed clopidogrel were more likely female (

conclusionClopidogrel continues to be the most commonly prescribed antiplatelet agent, particularly in older patients with more comorbidities.
