Minimum heart rate and mortality in critically ill myocardial infarction patients: an analysis of the MIMIC-III database.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundLow minimum heart rate (MHR) is common in critically ill myocardial infarction (MI) patients. However, the association between MHR and the mortality of critically ill MI patients remains unclear.
methodsIn this retrospective cohort study, a total of 2,031 critically ill MI patients were enrolled from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-III database. Patients were divided into a low MHR group [MHR <60 beats per minute (bpm)] and a high MHR group (MHR ≥60 bpm). A Cox proportional hazard model was used to elucidate the association between these two groups and the mortality of MI patients. The association between mortality and MHR as a continuous variable was analyzed non-parametrically using restricted cubic splines. Sensitivity analyses were conducted to determine the impact of different admission heart rate, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, and vasopressor use on our results.
resultsMI patients in the low MHR group had higher 30-day and 1-year mortality than those in the high MHR group (20.59%
conclusionsMHR under 60 bpm may be associated with a higher risk for both 30-day and 1-year mortality in critically ill MI patients. These findings highlight the possibility of MHR as an early risk indicator and potential therapeutic target for mortality in critically ill MI patients, which warrants further investigation.
