Prognostic value of myocardial contrast echocardiography in acute anterior wall ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction with successful epicardial recanalization.

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
Although myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) can evaluate microvascular perfusion abnormalities, its prognostic value is uncertain in acute anterior wall ST-Segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with successful epicardial recanalization. Therefore, the study aims to investigate the prognostic role of qualitative and quantitative MCE in acute anterior wall STEMI with successful epicardial recanalization. 153 STEMI patients were assessed by MCE within 7 days after successful epicardial recanalization. Qualitative perfusion parameters (microvascular perfusion score index, MPSI) and quantitative perfusion parameters (A, β, and Aβ) were acquired using a 17-segment model. And corrected A and Aβ were calculated. Patients were all followed for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). During median follow-up of 27 (4) months, 39 (25.49%) patients experienced MACEs, while 114 (74.51%) were free from MACEs. Patients with MACEs had higher MPSI (1.65 ± 0.13 vs. No-MACEs 1.35 ± 0.20, P < 0.001), lower β (1.09 ± 0.19 s
