Association Between Admission Pulse Pressure and Long-Term Mortality in Elderly Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Admitted for Acute Coronary Syndrome: An Observational Cohort Study.

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
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of pulse pressure (PP) at admission on long-term cardiac and all-cause mortality among elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) admitted for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods: This is a retrospective observational study. The patients aged at least 65 years with T2DM and ACS from January 2013 to April 2018 were enrolled and divided into 4 groups according to admission PP: <50 mmHg; 50-59 mmHg; 60-69 mmHg, and ≥70 mmHg. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analyses and restricted cubic spline were performed to determine the association between PP and outcomes (cardiac and all-cause death). Results: A total of 2,587 consecutive patients were included in this cohort study. The mean follow-up time was 39.2 months. The incidences of cardiac death and all-cause death were 6.8% ( Conclusion: In elderly patients with T2DM admitted for ACS, admission PP is an independent and strong predictor for long-term cardiac and all-cause mortality, especially in patients with AMI.
