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

Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15) and the no-reflow phenomenon are predictors of mortality after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We aimed to assess the relation between GDF-15 concentration on admission and the no-reflow phenomenon. The study was conducted prospectively among 80 consecutive STEMI patients who underwent primary PCI. No-reflow was defined as a corrected TIMI frame count > 27 and myocardial blush grade < 3 after PCI. GDF-15 was measured on admission. We assessed long-term (1.3 years) total mortality and the risk factors of no-reflow. The mean age was 65 (SD 12) years. Mortality rates were 2.5% and 7.5% for in-hospital and long-term observations, respectively. No-reflow occurred in 24% of patients. A negative correlation between TIMI flow after PCI and GDF-15 concentration (R = −0.2540, p = 0.023) was found. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis revealed GDF-15 as a predictor of no-reflow (AUC-0.698, 95%CI-0.552−0.843, p < 0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the risk factors for no-reflow occurrence were higher age, a concentration of GDF-15 > 1503 pg/mL, lower systolic blood pressure, and higher troponin I concentration on admission. A higher concentration of GDF-15 can be used as an additional marker of ischemia/reoxygenation injury, subsequent no-reflow phenomenon, and worse long-term outcomes in patients with STEMI.
