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

backgroundThe prevalence and predictors of in-hospital mortality in the unselected patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) after reperfusion therapy with fibrinolytic or primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in developing country have not well established.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study design. All admission records of acute ST elevation myocardial infarction at Suratthani Hospital between October 2015 and September 2017.

resultsThe finding between October 2015 and September 2017, a total of 431 patients received reperfusion therapy and were included in the present study. Majority of the patient were male (80.5%), almost half of the population had anterior wall MI, 32 patients died (7.4%), and 399 survived during the index hospitalization. The prevalence of chronic kidney disease, anterior wall MI, cardiogenic shock and cardiac arrest in non-survived group was higher than the survived group. Echocardiogram was performed in 299 patient (69.4%) and the median left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in overall population was 51%. After adjustment for baseline variables, LVEF (aOR 0.91, 95% CI, 0.83-0.98, P=0.02) and cardiac arrest at presentation (aOR 22, 95% CI, 1.22-410.05, P=0.036) were independently associated with in-hospital mortality.

conclusionsLVEF and cardiac arrest at presentation were independently associated with in-hospital mortality in STEMI patients receiving reperfusion therapy either fibrinolytic therapy or primary PCI.
