Cardio protective effect of nicorandil in reperfusion injury among patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
Article in Pakistan journal of medical sciences. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Objectives: To evaluate the effect of nicorandil in prevention of reperfusion injury during primary percutaneous coronary intervention by thrombolysis in myocardial infarction flow grade scoring. Methods: A total of 140 patients from Rawalpindi Institute of Cardiology were enrolled in this study conducted from 7 Results: Majority of participants in nicorandil group achieved thrombolysis in myocardial infarction Grade-3 scoring which indicated reduced rate of no reflow phenomenon as compared to control group. A statistically significant difference was noted in score of both groups ( Conclusion: Use of nicorandil in ST elevated myocardial infarction patients before primary percutaneous coronary intervention prevents reperfusion injury thus decreasing the risk of post percutaneous coronary intervention complications and reducing mortality rate in cardiac patients suggesting its significant cardio protective role.
