Beneficial effects of early administration of recombinant human B-type natriuretic peptide in ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients receiving percutaneous coronary intervention treatment.
Trial report in Singapore medical journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
introductionWe aimed to evaluate the clinical performance of early administration of recombinant human B-type natriuretic peptide (rhBNP) to ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients receiving percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) treatment.
methodsIn total, 185 patients diagnosed with STEMI were enrolled and randomised into either the placebo-treated (n = 88) or rhBNP-treated (n = 97) group. Patients were given either saline or rhBNP ten minutes before PCI and monitored with various cardiac parameters, including accelerated idioventricular rhythm, frequent ventricular premature beat (FVPB), ventricular tachycardia, systolic blood pressure, thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) 3 gradation, corrected TIMI frame count (cTFC) and myocardial blush grade (MBG) 3 classification.
resultsOur results revealed no difference in accelerated idioventricular rhythm between the two groups. However, FVPB and ventricular tachycardia were significantly decreased in rhBNP-treated patients compared to placebo-treated patients (p < 0.05). Moreover, the occurrence ratio of reperfusion-associated low blood pressure in rhBNP-treated patients was lower than in placebo-treated patients (p = 0.03), while no difference was observed in infarction-related arteries TIMI 3 blood flow between the two groups (p = 0.23). Importantly, measurement of post-reperfusion blood flow velocity via cTFC suggested that rhBNP treatment could significantly increase blood circulation (p = 0.003). After stent implantation, the acquisition rate of MBG 3 was higher in rhBNP-treated patients compared to placebo-treated patients (p = 0.071), although the difference was not significant.
conclusionWe concluded that early administration of rhBNP can ameliorate the severity of reperfusion injury for STEMI patients receiving PCI treatment.
