Predictive Value of Red Blood Cell Distribution Width for 1-Year All-Cause Mortality in Critically Ill Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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.
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
objectiveRed blood cell distribution width (RDW) on admission is a prognostic factor in cardiovascular disease. This study investigated the prognostic value of the RDW measured within 24 hours before discharge (24h dRDW) on 1-year all-cause mortality in critically ill patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and compared the effect of 24h dRDW in anemia and non-anemia patients. MATERIALS AND
methodsAltogether, 4088 patients with AMI were studied retrospectively. Data from the MIMIC-III database were collected and analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier method, Cox regression models, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis were used to assess the impact of 24h dRDW on all-cause mortality in AMI patients, and a stratified analysis was performed to investigate the prognostic value of 24h dRDW in anemia and non-anemia patients.
resultsOf the 4088 patients, there were 704 non-survivors (17.2%). The non-survivors had a higher RDW than the survivors (p<0.001). Cox regression analysis showed that 24h dRDW had a significant independent association with 1-year all-cause mortality in critically ill patients with AMI (quintile 5 vs quintile 1, HR, 95% CI: 2.847, 2.014-4.023). The area under the ROC curve of 24h dRDW was 0.710 (95% CI, 0.689-0.730). In the stratified analysis, a significant prognostic value of 24h dRDW was found in anemia patients for 1-year all-cause mortality, but not in non-anemia patients.
conclusionElevated 24h dRDW values are significantly associated with increased hazards of all-cause mortality in critically ill patients with AMI. Significant prognostic value of 24h dRDW was found in AMI patients with anemia, but not in those without anemia.
