Risk Factors in Patients with Non-ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction.
Article in Materia socio-medica, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
introductionThe most common cause of myocardial ischemia is atherosclerotic epicardial coronary artery disease, present in 90% of patients. Risk factors positively correlate with the onset, development and subsequent complications of atherosclerotic disease.
aimDetermine the percentage frequency of classic risk factors for coronary disease in patients with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), with regard to gender.
methodsA retrospective study was conducted on 600 respondents, treated for NSTEMI at the Clinic for Internal Medicine of the University Clinical Center (UKC) Tuzla, in the period from June 2016 to December 2019.
resultsOverall, smoking was the leading risk factor (65%), followed by hypertension (58%), hyperlipoproteinemia (39%), overweight (33%), positive family burden (30%) and diabetes mellitus (19%). In male patients, the leading risk factor was smoking, rating at 74%, while in female patients - it was hypertension at 67%. In younger groups of patients leading risk factors were smoking and a positive family burden.
conclusionWith adequate prevention and treatment measures, a significant reduction in the prevalence of the cardiovascular disease can be achieved, since the risk factors for its development have long been known. Quitting smoking is one of the most effective secondary prevention measure since it reduces the reinfarction risk rate by 50%. Knowledge of coronary risks, as well as success in reducing them, can greatly contribute to patients' overall sense of contentment and significantly raise their self-confidence.
