Identification of patients with acute coronary syndrome and representation of their degree of inflammation: application of pericoronary adipose tissue within different radial distances of the proximal coronary arteries.

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: Pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) around the proximal right coronary artery (RCA) is considered a marker of coronary inflammation. We aimed to explore the segments of PCAT that represent coronary inflammation in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and to identify patients with ACS and stable coronary artery disease (CAD) prior to intervention. Methods: We retrospectively enrolled consecutive patients with ACS and stable CAD who underwent invasive coronary angiography (ICA) after coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) from November 2020 to October 2021 at the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University. The fat attenuation index (FAI) was obtained using PCAT quantitative measurement software, and the coronary Gensini score was also calculated to indicate the severity of CAD. The differences and correlations between FAI within different radial distances of proximal coronary arteries were evaluated, and the recognition ability of FAI for patients with ACS and stable CAD was evaluated by establishing receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves. Results: A total of 267 patients were included in the cross-sectional study, including 173 patients with ACS. With the increase of radial distance from the outer wall of proximal coronary vessels, the FAI decreased (P<0.001). The FAI around the proximal left anterior descending artery (LAD) within the reference diameter from the outer wall of the vessel (LAD Conclusions: LAD
