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

objectiveLow serum free triiodothyronine (FT3) levels are associated with the occurrence of coronary heart disease and with the prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between FT3 levels and risk stratification in Chinese Han patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) receiving percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) treatment.

methodsPlasma FT3 levels and other parameters were measured in 191 patients with ACS who received PCI. The risk of adverse cardiovascular events was assessed using the Age, Creatinine, and Ejection Fraction (ACEF) score.

resultsFT3 levels were significantly lower in the high-risk group than in the medium- and low-risk groups. Serum FT3 levels were negatively linearly correlated with the ACEF score (r = -0.590). Stepwise regression analysis showed a negative correlation between FT3 levels and the risk of adverse cardiovascular events as measured by the ACEF score (standardized β = -0.261).

conclusionSerum FT3 levels are negatively related to risk stratification in patients with ACS. Serum FT3 levels may be used as a potential predictor for adverse outcomes of patients with ACS undergoing PCI.
