The independent impact of dementia in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for acute myocardial infarction.
Article in Clinical cardiology, 2023. 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
backgroundAlthough age and frailty are associated with worse prognoses for patients who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), little is known regarding the independent impact of dementia. HYPOTHESIS: The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between dementia and outcomes for patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
methodsConsecutive patients with ST-elevation or non-ST elevation MI who had undergone PCI as part of our AMI registry were included in this study. We compared outcomes within the 1-year period of their PCI, including death and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and corrected for confounders using Cox regression.
resultsOf 28 274 patients, 9167 patients who had undergone PCI for AMI were included in this study, 250 with dementia; Mean age (77.4 ± 9.4 in the dementia group vs. 63.6 ± 12.7 in the control), female gender (32.4 vs. 24.2%, p = .003), diabetes mellitus (54.0 vs. 42.4%, p < .001) and chronic kidney disease (44.4 vs. 19.3%, p < .001) were higher. At 12 months, unadjusted rates of death (25.5 vs. 9.8%, p < .001) and MACE (33.8 vs. 17.6%, p < .001) were higher for patients with dementia. After standardizing for confounding variables, dementia remained an independent risk factor for death (HR 1.90; CI 1.37-2.65; p < .001) and MACE (HR 1.73; CI 1.30-2.31; p < .001), as well as in propensity score matched analysis (HR 1.54; CI: 1.03-2.28; p < .001 and HR 1.49; CI: 1.09-2.02; p < .001, respectively).
conclusionsDementia is an independent predictor of worse outcomes in patients undergoing PCI for AMI. Future intervention and specialized healthcare measures to mitigate this risk is warranted.
