Incorporating the erythrocyte sedimentation rate for enhanced accuracy of the global registry of acute coronary event score in patients with ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction: A retrospective cohort study.

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
There is scarce evidence that the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) could efficiently improve the prediction accuracy of the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) risk score in cases of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).A cohort of 1094 STEMI patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention was retrospectively recruited. Patients were categorized based on the ESR values. Final endpoints included cardiovascular death and major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) occurrence. The predictive value of combined models with the GRACE score and ESR was assessed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, net reclassification improvement (NRI), and integrated discrimination improvement.During the mean follow-up of 23 months, 34 patients died and 190 experienced MACEs, of which 23 patients died in the first year; both endpoints were more frequent in the higher group. The ESR and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were independent risk factors of 1-year cardiovascular death, together with the GRACE score (ESR: hazard ratio = 1.03, P = .006 hs-CRP: hazard ratio = 1.00, P = .001; GRACE: 1.03, P = .012). Although no statistical improvement in the area under the ROC curve was observed in either the GRACE/ESR or the GRACE/hs-CRP model (GRACE/ESR models: 0. 8073 vs GRACE: 0.7714, P = .22; GRACE/ESR models: 0. 7815 vs GRACE: 0.7714, P = .61), the GRACE score and ESR together significantly improved the NRI (0.633; P< .001) compared with the GRACE alone. Regarding the mid-term mortality, adding the ESR to the GRACE score not only improved the NRI (0.8433; P < .001), but also increased the integrated discrimination improvement (0.0509; P = .04).The ESR is an independent risk factor of cardiovascular death and MACE in STEMI patients receiving primary percutaneous coronary intervention. The ESR comparatively enhanced the predictive values of the prognostic model, including the GRACE risk score.
