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
backgroundThe purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical significance of elevated plasma high-sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT) in the chronic phase in patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP) who underwent a successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
methodsThis study enrolled 158 consecutive SAP patients who underwent routine follow-up coronary angiography 9 months after a successful PCI with the implantation of a second-generation drug-eluting stent. Patients with previous coronary artery bypass graft and renal dysfunction were excluded. Patients were divided into two groups according to hs-TnT plasma level at follow-up: elevated hs-TnT (≥ 0.015 ng/ml) group and non-elevated hs-TnT group.
resultsAmong the 158 subjects, 42 had an elevated hs-TnT level at follow-up. The elevated hs-TnT group had a significantly higher rate of any coronary lesion (in-stent restenosis and de novo lesions) in follow-up CAG (coronary angiography) than the non-elevated group (28.6% vs. 10.3%, p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis also showed that hs-TnT elevation was independently associated with the presence of significant coronary stenosis in the chronic phase (odds ratio: 3.99, 95% confidence interval: 1.38 to 11.53). The best cut-off value of the hs-TnT level at 9 months after a successful PCI to predict the presence of significant coronary stenosis was 0.016 ng/ml (sensitivity: 50.0%; specificity: 82.1%; area under the receiver operating characteristic curve: 0.67).
conclusionshs-TnT elevation was independently associated with the presence of coronary stenosis in the chronic phase in SAP patients with successful PCI. Routine measurement of hs-TnT in the chronic phase may be useful to refine the risk of patients after PCI.
