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

backgroundHypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia and smoking are established coronary risk factors for coronary heart disease in the general population. However, in Japanese patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), the impact of the number of coronary risk factors on in-hospital morality remains unclear.

methodsThe Japan Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry (JAMIR) is a nationwide real-world database. We examined the association between the number of coronary risk factors and in-hospital mortality.

resultsData were obtained from total of 20462 AMI patients (mean age, 68.8 ± 13.3 years old; 15281 men, 5181 women). The prevalence of hypertension increased with advancing age, while the prevalence of smoking decreased with advancing age. The prevalence of diabetes and dyslipidemia were highest in middle age. A majority (76.9%) of the patients with AMI had at least 1 of these coronary risk factors. Overall, the number of coronary risk factor was relatively less in older subjects and women under 50 years old. Crude in-hospital mortality rates were 10.7%, 10.5%, 7.2%, 5.0% and 4.5% with 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 risk factors, respectively. After adjusting for age and sex, there was an inverse association between the number of coronary risk factors and the in-hospital mortality (adjusted odds ratio [1.68; 95% confidence interval, 1.20-2.35] among individuals with 0 vs. 4 risk factors).

conclusionIn the present study of Japanese patients with AMI, who received modern medical treatment, in-hospital mortality was inversely related to the number of coronary risk factors. To investigate the underlying reasons for these findings, further studies are needed.
