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

backgroundThe data on prognostic values of SYNTAX score II in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention is limited. We report predictive utility of SYNTAX score II in relation to in hospital and 1 year mortality of the patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

methodsThis was a cohort study of patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at a single centre from January 2018 to December 2019. In hospital and 12-month events and mortality was analysed among 1000 patients. The patients were divided into 3 groups based on tertiles of Syntax II score (<22, 22-27.7 and >27.7).

resultThe total mortality at 12 months was 60 (6%). Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) occurred in 87 (9%). The patients who died had higher SYNTAX score II score compared to those alive at 12 months 34 (38, 24) vs 24 (28.1, 20.9) P < 0.01. The same trend was seen in patients who had major adverse cardiac events (MACE) 28 (34, 24) vs 24 (28.6, 21) P < 0.01 Among the 3 groups of SYNTAX score II, in hospital mortality, all-cause mortality, cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, revascularization and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) were higher in the third tertile (>27.7) compared the lower tertiles.

conclusionThe patients who had higher SYNTAX score II had more in hospital and 12 month mortality and major adverse cardiac events (MACE). SYNTAX II score is a better predictor of in-hospital, and 12 month cardiovascular and all cause mortality.
