Epidemiological Features and Clinical Presentations of Acute Coronary Syndrome in Young Patients.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Objective Although acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is an uncommon entity in young patients, it constitutes an important problem due to the devastating effects of the disease on the more active lifestyle of young patients. At present, there are no guidelines regarding the prevention of ACS in young patients. Methods We performed a retrospective study of ACS patients between 2014 and 2017. Epidemiological data, clinical findings, and short-term outcomes were evaluated between young ACS patients (≤50 years old) and elderly ACS patients (>50 years old). Results Of a total of 361 consecutive ACS patients, 37 were young ACS patients (10.2%). Compared with elderly ACS patients, young ACS patients showed a higher prevalence of males (94.6% vs. 73.8%, p<0.001), current smoking (70.3% vs. 29.9%; p<0.001), and overweight persons (67.6% vs. 27.8%, p<0.001). The eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)/arachidonic acid (AA) ratio was significantly lower in young ACS patients than in elderly ACS patients [0.17 (0.12-0.25) vs. 0.25 (0.18-0.37), p=0.002]. The prevalence of cardio-pulmonary arrest and percutaneous cardiopulmonary support use was higher in young ACS patients than in elderly ACS patients (24.3% vs. 8.6%, p=0.003, 16.2% vs. 3.1%, p<0.001). Conclusion The features were markedly different between young ACS patients and elderly ACS patients. In young ACS patients, smoking, being overweight, and a low EPA/AA ratio were distinctive risk factors, and more serious clinical presentations were observed at the onset of ACS than in older patients.
