Association of admission serum calcium level with left ventricular dysfunction in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
Article in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: The relationship between serum calcium and left ventricular function in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has not been explored. Our aim was to investigate the correlation of admission serum calcium with left ventricular dysfunction in ACS patients. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 658 ACS patients who were admitted in the Department of Cardiovascular Disease from June 1st, 2019 to December 31st, 2019 were enrolled in the present study. Serum calcium and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) were measured at admission. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was assessed using echocardiography. The correlation between admission serum calcium and left ventricular dysfunction was analyzed. Results: When stratified by serum calcium quartiles calculated from all patients, patients with lower serum calcium quartile showed a markedly higher BNP and lower LVEF ( Conclusions: In patients with ACS, admission serum calcium was positively correlated with LVEF and negatively with BNP. Lower admission serum calcium was an independent risk factor for elevated BNP.
