Time trends in incidence, treatment, and outcome in acute myocardial infarction in Norway 2013-19.
Article in European heart journal open, 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
Aims: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a common cause of morbidity and mortality. The aim of the present study was to assess time trends in the incidence, treatment, and outcome of AMI in a nationwide registry-based cohort of patients. Methods and results: All patients with a first AMI registered in the Norwegian Myocardial Infarction Registry between 2013 and 2019 were included in this cohort study. The number of patients admitted to Norwegian hospitals with a first AMI decreased from 8933 in 2013 to 8383 in 2019. The proportion of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) was stable at 30% throughout the period, and the percentage of STEMI undergoing coronary angiography was stable at 87%. The proportion of patients with non-STEMI undergoing coronary angiography increased by 2.4% per year (95% confidence interval 1.6-3.3) from 58% in 2013 to 68% in 2019. More patients were discharged with secondary preventive medication at the end of study period. Age-adjusted 1-year mortality was reduced from 16.4% in 2013 to 15.1% in 2018. The changes over time were primarily seen in the oldest patient groups. Conclusion: In the period 2013-19 in Norway, we found a reduction in hospitalizations due to a first AMI. Both the percentage of patients undergoing coronary angiography as well as the percentage discharged with recommended secondary preventive therapy increased during the period, and the age-adjusted 1-year mortality after AMI decreased. A national AMI register provides important information about trends in incidence, treatment, and outcome, and may improve adherence to guideline recommendations.
