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

aimsThe aims of this study were to evaluate the effects of sodium tanshinone IIA sulfonate (STS) on left ventricular (LV) remodelling after for ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS AND

resultsIn this prospective, randomized clinical trial, 101 patients with the ST-elevated MI (STEMI) and a successful reperfusion were immediately randomized to receive STS (80 mg qd for 7 days) or saline control, along with standard therapy. The primary effectiveness endpoint is the % change in LV end diastolic volumes index (%∆ LVEDVi) as measured by echocardiography from baseline to 6 months. Secondary effectiveness endpoints include 6-month period for major adverse cardiac events (MACE), including the occurrence of recurrent myocardial infarction, death, hospitalization for heart failure and malignant arrhythmia. The 6-month changes in %∆ LVEDVi were significantly smaller in the STS group than in the control group [-5.05% vs 3.32%; P < 0.001]. With respect to MACE, there was a significant difference between those who received STS (8.16%) and those patients on control (26.00%) (P = 0.019). Meaningfully, results of parallel tests aimed at mechanistic explanation of the reported clinical effects, revealed a significantly reduced levels of neutrophils-derived granule components in the blood of STS treated patients.

conclusionWe found that short-term treatment with STS reduced progressive left ventricular remodelling and subsequent better clinical outcome that could be mechanistically linked to the inhibition of the ultimate damage of infarcted myocardium by infiltrating neutrophils.
