Risk and clinical outcomes of acute myocardial infarction and acute ischemic stroke following gram-negative bloodstream infection.

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
objectivesThis retrospective cohort study examines incidence, risk factors, and clinical outcomes of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and acute ischemic stroke (AIS) within one year of gram-negative bloodstream infection (GN-BSI) based on predefined clinical criteria.
methodsHospitalized adults with GN-BSI at Prisma Health-Midlands hospitals in South Carolina, USA from 2010 through 2015 were identified. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to determine incidence of AMI and AIS within one year after GN-BSI. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to examine risk factors for AMI or AIS and impact on 1-year mortality.
resultsAmong 1292 patients with GN-BSI, 263 and 17 developed AMI and AIS within 1-year with incidences of 23.4% and 1.9%, respectively. Majority of AMI were type 2 (164; 62%); 99 patients had type 1 AMI with incidence of 8.9%. Age >65 years (hazard ratio [HR] 1.52, 95% CI: 1.17-1.99), prior coronary artery disease or stroke (HR 1.74, 95% CI: 1.34-2.25), hypertension (HR 1.55, 95% CI: 1.13-2.15), end-stage renal disease (HR 1.52, 95% CI: 1.09-2.08), and quick Pitt bacteremia score (HR 1.55 per point, 95% CI: 1.40-1.72) were predictors of AMI/AIS. Development of type 1 AMI or AIS after GN-BSI was independently associated with increased 1-year mortality (HR 1.47, 95% CI: 1.03-2.07).
conclusionsAMI and AIS occur frequently within one year of GN-BSI and have negative impact on 1-year survival. Future randomized clinical trials are needed to determine the most effective clinical interventions for prevention of AMI/AIS following BSI in high risk patients and improve survival after these events.
