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 study aimed to analyze the prognostic value of fragmented wide QRS (f WQRS) in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).

methodsEighty-five STEMI patients treated in our hospital from September, 2016 to August, 2017 were selected as objects of study. The patients were divided into Group A (GA, n=15), Group B (GB, n=12), Group C (GC, n=12), Group D (GD, n=16), Group E (GE, n=11) and Group F (GF, n=19) according to results of the electrocardiogram (ECG). The six groups were detected and analyzed with respect to coronary artery lesions, invasion site, cardiac parameters, myocardial injure markers, Killip grading, and prognosis.

resultsGA and GB had right coronary artery occlusion; GC mainly had right coronary artery occlusion and circumflex artery occlusion, and GD mainly had right coronary artery occlusion. The invasion site of GE was mainly in the proximal (middle) segment of anterior descending branch and that of GF in the (middle) distal segment of the anterior descending branch.

conclusionMonitoring the phenomenon of QRS in ECG is an effective method to evaluate the disease condition and prognosis of STEMI patients. Therefore, this method shall be emphasized in clinical practice.
