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

objectiveThis research aimed to investigate the predictive value of the uric acid-to-serum albumin ratio (UAR) in establishing the severity and extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) patients.

methodsA total of 402 patients (mean age 63.5 ± 11.6 years) were included in this retrospectively designed study. We compared Synergy between Percutaneous Coronary Intervention with Taxus and Cardiac Surgery Scores (SS) between low (≤22) and intermediate-high (>22) groups. The UAR, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and the C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR) were evaluated and compared.

resultsSS >22 were observed in 30.8% (

conclusionAs a novel inflammatory marker, UAR independently predicted better outcomes than CAR and might be used reliably in prediction of the extent of CAD in NSTEMI patients.
