Association between Initial Serum Cholesterol Levels and Outcomes of Patients Hospitalized after Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest: A Retrospective Multicenter Registry Study.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purposeThis study aimed to investigate the association between total serum cholesterol levels and outcomes upon discharge in patients after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA).
methodsWe performed a retrospective observational study using the Korean Cardiac Arrest Resuscitation Consortium (KoCARC) registry. Patients after OHCA whose total serum cholesterol levels were measured within 24 h after arriving at the emergency department were included in the analysis. The association between total serum cholesterol level and neurological outcomes upon discharge and survival to discharge was estimated.
resultsOf the 12,321 patients after OHCA enrolled in the registry from October 2015 to June 2020, 689 patients were included. The poor neurologic outcome upon discharge group had a statistically significant lower total serum cholesterol level compared to the good neurologic outcome group (127.5 ± 45.1 mg/dL vs. 155.1 ± 48.9 mg/dL,
conclusionsLow total serum cholesterol levels could be associated with poor neurologic outcomes upon discharge and in-hospital death of patients hospitalized after OHCA.
