Inter-hospital transfer in patients with acute myocardial infarction in China: Findings from the improving care for cardiovascular disease in China-acute coronary syndrome project.
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 9 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: Little is known about the current scenario of inter-hospital transfer for patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in China. Methods: From November 2014 to December 2019, 94,623 AMI patients were enrolled from 241 hospitals in 30 provinces in China. We analyzed the pattern of inter-hospital transfer, and compared in-hospital treatments and outcomes between transferred patients and directly admitted patients. Results: Of these patients, 40,970 (43.3%) were transferred from hospitals that did not provide percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The proportion of patients who were transferred from non-PCI hospital was 46.3% and 11.9% ( Conclusion: More than 40% of the hospitalized AMI patients were transferred from non-PCI-capable hospitals in China. Further strategies are needed to enhance the capability of revascularization and reduce the inequality in management of AMI.
