1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundIn patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary interventions (pPCI), longer door-to-balloon (DTB) time is known to be associated with an unfavorable outcome. A percentage of patients with acute coronary occlusion present with atypical electrocardiographic (ECG) findings, known as STEMI-equivalents. We investigated whether DTB time for STEMI-equivalent patients was delayed.

methodsThis is a retrospective study including patients arriving at an emergency department with the acute coronary syndrome in whom emergent pPCI was performed. ECGs were classified into STEMI and STEMI-equivalent groups. We compared DTB time, with its components, between the groups. We also investigated whether STEMI-equivalent ECG was an independent predictor of DTB time delayed for more than 90 min.

resultsA total of 180 patients were included in the present study, and 23 patients (12.8%) presented with STEMI-equivalent ECGs. DTB time was significantly delayed in patients with STEMI-equivalent ECGs (89 (80-122) vs. 81 (70-88) min,

conclusionsDTB time was significantly delayed in patients presenting with STEMI-equivalent ECGs. Prompt recognition of STEMI-equivalent ECGs by emergency physicians and interventional cardiologists might reduce DTB time and lead to a better clinical outcome.
