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 use of anticoagulants and antiplatelet therapies is associated with a higher risk of bleeding in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients after percutaneous coronary intervention, especially after stent implantation. However, no accurate bleeding risk prediction tool has been developed for these patients. The aim of this study was thus to establish a bleeding risk prediction model (predictive nomogram) for patients with AF after stent implantation.

methodsConstruction of the predictive nomogram was based on a retrospective study, which enrolled 943 AF patients who underwent drug-eluting stent implantation between May 2012 and September 2016. A range of factors, including demographics, comorbidities, medication strategies, arterial access, and laboratory tests, were collected as baseline data. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to identify the key clinical features for construction of the predictive nomogram. The concordance index (C-index) and internal validation were used to evaluate the efficacy of the nomogram.

resultsOf the 943 AF patients that underwent stent implantation, the occurrence of bleeding events was 8.2% (77 out of 943). Key predictors included the number of antiplatelet drugs, peptic ulcer, cerebral infarction, type 2 diabetes, thrombocytopenia, anemia, prior myocardial infarction, sex (male), use of anticoagulant drugs, liver dysfunction, hypertension, and acute myocardial infarction. These predictors were used to construct the nomogram. The C-index for the prediction of bleeding risk by the nomogram was 0.841 (95% CI: 0.79-0.89), which indicated good discrimination and calibration. The C-index of internal validation was 0.795, which demonstrated good efficacy of the model.

conclusionsThis study suggests that our novel nomogram can accurately predict bleeding risk in AF patients after stent implantation during hospitalization, thereby helping to avoid complications. The nomogram may also be helpful for the creation of individualized post-discharge medication strategies.
