Angiographic Predictors of Viability During Intervention for a ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction.
Article in Sultan Qaboos University medical journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: This study aimed to identify angiographic features that would predict myocardial viability after coronary intervention for ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: This retrospective study included patients who attended Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, Muscat, Oman, between January and December 2019 with a STEMI. Results: A total of 72 patients (61 male; mean age = 54.9 ± 12.7 years) were included in the study; 11 patients had evidence of non-viability on echocardiography. There were 13 patients with viable myocardium and 3 with non-viable myocardium who had a myocardial blush grade (MBG) of 2 or lower. Similarly, 10 patients with viability and 1 with non-viable myocardium had thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow of 2 or lower in the infarct related artery (IRA). However, none of these were statistically significant. The TIMI flow in the IRA at the end of the procedure correlated with the MBG. Conclusion: There were no clear angiographic features during primary angioplasty that could predict myocardial viability.
