In-Hospital Outcomes of Coronary Artery Stenting in Patients With ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) and Metabolic Syndrome: Insights From the National Inpatient Sample.

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
Background Metabolic syndrome (MetS) has been recognized as a global health problem. Concurrent MetS diagnosis in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is becoming increasingly common. Given the paucity of studies on the impact of MetS on treatment outcomes in STEMI patients, the purpose of this study was to evaluate in-hospital mortality in STEMI patients with a concurrent MetS diagnosis undergoing a stenting procedure to treat their underlying coronary artery disease. Method Patients with or without MetS who underwent coronary stenting following STEMI between 2005 and 2014 were identified from the National Inpatient Sample database. Patients' demographics, comorbidities, and outcomes were compared using a t-test and Pearson's Chi-square test. In addition, 1:1 propensity score matching was performed for age, gender, and race. Results Out of 1,938,097 STEMI patients, 5,817 patients with MetS underwent coronary stenting following STEMI and were matched with 5,817 patients with no Mets. MetS group had significantly higher rates of diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, chronic kidney disease, and obstructive sleep apnea than the no MetS group but lower rates of heart failure and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. In-hospital mortality following STEMI was significantly lower in patients with MetS (2.5% vs. 7.1%, p<0.001) and remained significant after adjusting for potential confounders (odds ratio (OR) 0.34, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.28-0.42, p<0.0001). Conclusion Concurrent diagnosis of MetS among patients undergoing coronary stenting is associated with a decreased in-hospital mortality risk. The impact of specific MetS components on the observed reduction in mortality remains unclear and warrants evaluation in future studies.
