Principle and design of clinical efficacy observation of extracorporeal cardiac shock wave therapy for patients with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury: A prospective randomized controlled trial protocol.
Article in PloS one, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05624203 (Clinical Efficacy of Extracorporeal Cardiac Shock Wave Therapy in Patients With Ischemia-reperfusion Injury), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
backgroundAcute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains a serious life threatening event with a poor prognosis due to myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury despite coronary revascularization. Extracorporeal cardiac shock wave (ECSW) is a safe, effective and non-invasive new method for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. The current results show that extracorporeal cardiac shock wave provides a new treatment option for patients with severe and advanced coronary heart disease. However, there are relatively few clinical studies on the application of in vitro cardiac shock waves in patients with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. We hypothesized that extracorporeal cardiac shock therapy would also be effective in reducing clinical endpoints in patients with STEMI reperfusion.
objectiveThis study is order to provide a new therapeutic method for patients with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and reveal the possible mechanism of ECSW for ischemia-reperfusion injury. METHODS AND MATERIALS: CEECSWIIRI is a single-center, prospective randomized controlled trial that plans to enroll 102 eligible patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction reperfusion. Eligible patients with STEMI reperfusion will be randomly divided into external cardiac shock therapy (ECSW) trial group and blank control group. The blank control group will receive optimal drug therapy, and the experimental group will receive optimal drug therapy combined with ECSW. The shock wave treatment plan will be 3-month therapy, specifically 1 week of treatment per month, 3 weeks of rest, 3 times of ECSW in each treatment week, respectively on the first day, the third day and the fifth day of the treatment week, lasting for 3 months and follow-up for 2 years. The primary endpoint will be to assess the 2-year improvement in all-cause death, re-hospitalization due to cardiovascular disease, major unintentional cerebrovascular events, including cardiogenic death, myocardial infarction, heart failure, arrhythmia, emergency coronary revascularization, and stroke in patients with STEMI reperfusion. Secondary endpoints will include improvements in angina pectoris, quality of life, cardiac structure and function, coronary microcirculation, and endothelial progenitor cell-derived miR-140-3p in relation to survival outcomes.
