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

introductionThe effect of the type of left ventricular hypertrophy in patients presenting with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) on long-term outcomes is ill-defined. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prognostic effect of concentric (CH) or eccentric hypertrophy (EH) on adverse outcomes in patients presenting with ACS undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). MATERIAL AND

methodsWe analyzed 1-year follow-up data from a single-institution, retrospective, observational study that enrolled 1,153 patients who presented with ACS and were treated with PCI, for whom echocardiographic data were available.

resultsNormal geometry was observed in 718 (62.3%) patients, while 27.2% had CH and 10.5% had EH. The primary endpoint of all-cause death (

conclusionsThe presence of eccentric hypertrophy in ACS patients undergoing PCI is an independent predictor of adverse outcomes at 1 year.
