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

Although measurements of natriuretic peptides have a role in chronic heart failure and acute coronary syndrome, their role has not been studied in ST-elevation myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock (CS-STEMI). Sixty-four patients with CS-STEMI were prospectively recruited to assess the prognostic value of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) measurement after 24 h of the onset of angina or anginal equivalent. Patients who died within 24 h were excluded. The mean age was 56.9 ± 10.6 years and the median time to presentation was 22 h (Interquartile range 7-48 h). Thrombolysis was done in 51% and PCI in 31% of cases. The in-hospital mortality was 26.5%. The ROC analysis showed a strong relationship between elevated NT-proBNP and in-hospital mortality (AUC = 0.748; p = 0.003). An NT-proBNP value > 8582 pg/mL showed 76.5% sensitivity, 68% specificity, 46.4% positive predictive value, and 89% negative predictive value for in-hospital mortality. Acute kidney injury [Odds ratio (OR) 7.30; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.42-37.37] and NT-proBNP (OR 1.12 per 1000 pg/mL; CI 1.012-1.25) were independent predictors of mortality in multivariate regression analysis. Although we found plasma NT-proBNP at 24 h to be an independent predictor of in-hospital mortality in CS-STEMI, additional studies with a larger sample are required to ascertain these findings and validate the appropriate cut-off values.
