Association of hyperlipidaemia with 5-year survival after hospitalisation for acute myocardial infarction: a propensity score matched analysis.
Observational study in Open heart, 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
Objectives: The primary objective was to examine the association between hyperlipidaemia (HLP) and 5-year survival after incident acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The secondary objectives were to assess the effect of HLP on survival to discharge across patient subgroups, and the impact of statin prescription, intensity and long-term statin adherence on 5-year survival. Methods: Retrospective cohort study of 7071 patients hospitalised for AMI at Mayo Clinic from 2001 through 2011. Of these, 2091 patients with HLP (age (mean±SD) 69.7±13.5) were propensity score matched to 2091 patients without HLP (age 70.6±14.2). Results: In matched patients, HLP was associated with higher rate of survival to discharge than no HLP (95% vs 91%; log-rank <0.0001). At year 5, the adjusted HR for all-cause mortality in patients with HLP versus no HLP was 0.66 (95% CI 0.58-0.74), and patients with prescription statin versus no statin was 0.24 (95% CI 0.21 to 0.28). The mean survival was 0.35 year greater in patients with HLP than in those with no HLP (95% CI 0.25 to 0.46). Patients with HLP gained on an average 0.17 life year and those treated with statin 0.67 life year at 5 years after AMI. The benefit of concurrent HLP was consistent across study subgroups. Conclusions: In patients with AMI, concomitant HLP was associated with increased survival and a net gain in life years, independent of survival benefit from statin therapy. The results also reaffirm the role of statin prescription, intensity and adherence in reducing the mortality after incident AMI.
