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

backgroundDe Winter syndrome is an electrocardiogram (ECG) pattern related to acute occlusion of the anterior descending artery. The incidence rate of De Winter syndrome is rare, but still requires much attention from clinicians.

methodsTwo patients who finnaly diagnosed with De Winter syndrome were included in our study.

resultsA 55-year-old male farmer, who was previously healthy, came to the emergency room due to sudden pain in the precordial area for 6 hours, accompanied with back pain and sweating. The second ECG revealed De Winter syndrome. Emergency coronary angiography was taken, which showed a severe atrioventricular block; diffuse stenosis in the proximal and middle segments of the left anterior descending branch, with 90% stenosis in the severest region. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of the left anterior descending artery was performed. A 70-year-old man with a history of hypertension arrived at the Emergency Department with chest pain for 3 hours. The first ECG was performed, which was contacted with de winter syndrome. The second ECG demonstrated acute anterior Myocardial infarction. Emergency coronary angiography showed approximately 95% stenosis at the junction of the proximal and middle segments. PCI of the proximal and middle segments of the left anterior descending artery was performed.

conclusionDe Winter syndrome is a type of acute coronary syndrome, which may be an early ECG pattern in the development of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Therefore, once De Winter syndrome is observed on the ECG, acute coronary syndrome, especially acute anterior descending occlusion should not be ignored.
