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

objectiveThe aim of the present study was to determine the effects of intravenous (IV) and intracoronary administration of Vitamin C on the incidence of periprocedural myocardial injury in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

methodsIn this prospective, double-blind, randomized clinical trial, that was conducted in Tehran Heart Center, Iran, between October 2016 and March 2017, 252 patients undergoing primary PCI were enrolled to receive either 3 g of IV Vitamin C before PCI and 100 mg of intracoronary Vitamin C during PCI in addition to the routine treatment (

findingsIn the patients who received Vitamin C, the serum levels of troponin T after 12 h and creatine kinase-MB after 6 h were significantly lower than those in the placebo group (

conclusionIn primary PCI patients, the prophylactic use of IV and intracoronary Vitamin C can confer additional clinical benefits such as cardioprotection.
