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

introductionWe investigated association of pro-BNP, troponin-I, electrocardiography (ECG) and echocardiography (ECHO) during diagnosis and identification of cirrhotic cardiomyopathy in cirrhotic patients. MATERIALS AND

methodsPatients were divided into three groups as; compensated cirrhotic patients (group 1, n= 30), decompensated cirrhotic (group 2, n = 30) and control group (group 3, n = 30). ECHO, and ECG were performed, and troponin-I and levels of pro-BNP were analyzed.

resultsAverage age of group 1 was 46.36 ± 16 years (range 19-86), 60% were female; group 2 was 57.03 ± 13.54 years (range 22-89), 56% female; and group 3 was 49.13 ± 0.95 years (range 18-80), 56% female. A significant increase in QTc was detected in compensated cirrhotic patients compared to the control group (p <0.05). Pro-BNP levels were significantly higher (p <0.05) in the compensated cirrhotic group compared to the control group. The levels of pro-BNP were also significantly higher in the decompensated cirrhotic group compared compensated cirrhosis group and control group (p <0.001).

conclusionThe increase of pro-BNP levels with severity of the disease in cirrhotic patients and the prolongation of QTc interval supports an association between these factors with cardiomyopathy.
