The Association Between Hematologic Indices with TIMI Flow in STEMI Patients who Undergo Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.

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
backgroundThe Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PPCI) is the preferred therapeutic strategy for patients who experienced ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI).
objectiveWe aimed to evaluate the association of hematological indices, including hemoglobin level, platelets, White Blood Cells (WBCs) count, and MPV before PPCI with the TIMI grade flow after PPCI.
methodsSTEMI patients who experienced PPCI were included in the present retrospective crosssectional study. Then participants were divided into three groups based on their post-procedural TIMI flow grades. Demographic data and hematologic indices of patients before PPCI were collected and their association with the TIMI grade flow after PPCI was evaluated. To compare the quantitative and qualitative variables, chi-square and t-tests were performed, respectively.
resultsWe found that elevated levels of hemoglobin and decreased levels of MPV had a significant association with an advanced grade of TIMI flow. Interestingly, in the normal range, there was a significant association between higher platelet count and TIMI-flow grade 1. Besides, TIMI flow grades 2 and 3 had a significant association with low and moderate platelets count, respectively.
conclusionIn conclusion, evaluating MPV, platelets, and hemoglobin levels before PPCI as easy and accessible parameters may be able to identify high-risk STEMI patients undergoing PPCI.
