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

objectiveIn our study, we aimed to find simple, useful biomarkers in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction to predict coronary artery severity.

methodsBetween May 2022 and December 2022, patients diagnosed with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction according to the European cardiology guidelines were included in our study. The Synergy between PCI with Taxus and Cardiac Surgery score was calculated to determine the severity of coronary artery disease. These patients were classified into two groups according to Synergy between PCI with Taxus and Cardiac Surgery≥23 and Synergy between PCI with Taxus and Cardiac Surgery<23 scores. Biochemical markers such as platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio were studied in blood tests taken before coronary angiography in patients diagnosed with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction according to current guidelines. These two groups were compared in terms of the data obtained.

resultsThere were 281 patients in group 1 and 67 patients in group 2. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of demographic data such as age and gender. Platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio [group 1=125 (26-134) and group 2=156 (73-293); p=0.001] and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio [group 1=2.71 (1.3-30.2) and group 2=3.2 (2.1-32.1); p=0.002] were higher in the group of patients with a Synergy between PCI with Taxus and Cardiac Surgery score of <23, while lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio [group 1=3.6 (0.56-11) and group 2=3.4 (0.64-5.75); p=0.017] was lower in group 2.

conclusionWe observed that elevated platelet-to-lymphocyte and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratios showed coronary artery severity. Multivessel disease and chronic total occlusion rates were observed to be higher in patients with high platelet-to-lymphocyte and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratios.
