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

introductionGovernment of Goa initiated ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction(STEMI) - Goa project for achieving the objectives of Ayushman Bharat and Sustainable Development Goals to reduce the premature mortality from non-communicable diseases by one-third with adopting advanced health practices and modern technology. The project handles the escalating STEMI cases in Goa since December 2018.

methodsMix-method was used for data collection in this study and service statistics was collected from the hub and spoke hospitals. Additionally, staff engaged in the implementation of STEMI model were interviewed. We have visited 13 public health facilities including Goa Medical College where the 'Hub-and-Spoke' model of STEMI has institutionalized. The data was collected during October 2019 by employing the pre-designed checklist.

resultsAll patients who reached the hub-hospital undergone with angiography followed by angioplasty if required. Since the initiation of the project total of 546 patients were diagnosed with the STEMI and 85 percent of patients admitted with a STEMI were thrombolized, - subsequently, 64 percent of them undergone for angiography. Considering the mortality, around 6 percent of deaths have occurred during the past six months. Our study highlights the positive effect of the Hub-and-Spoke model on the treatment of patients with STEMI. The hub-and-spoke model is functioning effectively under the continuous monitoring of expert cardiologists. Additionally, the model has a review committee to investigate deceased cases, advanced cardiac care ambulances and modern ECGs technology.

conclusionThe model can be implemented at a larger scale in other parts of India with the required human resource and advanced technology.
