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 role of regional strain evaluation in patients with acute reperfused ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is not well determined. The objective of this study was the description of regional strain characteristics in the acute and chronic phase of myocardial infarction and its correlation with symptom-to-balloon time and final extent of myocardial scar assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.

methodsThe study cohort has been derived from the randomized controlled Abciximab Intracoronary versus Intravenously Drug Application in STEMI (AIDA STEMI) trial enrolled at the University of Ulm. All patients received comprehensive cardiac magnetic resonance imaging examinations in the acute phase and 6 months later.

resultsThere was a significant improvement of all global deformation indices over time (global longitudinal strain: -13.1%±5.1% to -15.5%±5.8%, P=0.001; global circumferential strain: -14.4%±3.7% to -16.8%±3.6%, P<0.0001; global radial strain: 28.1%±8.7% to 31.9%±9.2%, P=0.0002). Mean radial strain of ischemic segments significantly improved (16.6%±10.8% to 23.7%±12.8%, P<0.0001), while mean radial strain of remote segments remained unchanged (40.2%±9.4% to 39.4%±9.4%, P=0.570). There was a significant correlation between acute phase radial strain of ischemic segments and either symptom-to-balloon time (P=0.013), as well as extent of late gadolinium enhancement at follow-up (P<0.0001). Using a cut-off of ≤27%, acute phase radial strain predicted infarction of the corresponding segment with high sensitivity and specificity (74.4% and 69.0% respectively, P<0.001).

conclusionsSegmental radial strain in the acute phase of infarction showed a significant correlation to either symptom-to-balloon-time and the extent of late gadolinium enhancement at follow-up, thus potentially serving as early surrogate for left ventricular remodeling and outcome in STEMI.
