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

Introduction: Ticagrelor has been established as the P2Y Material and methods: In this pre-specified analysis of the MIRTOS trial, the degree of change in left ventricular ejection fraction (ΔLVEF) and left ventricular longitudinal strain (ΔLV-GLS) from baseline to 90 days post-randomization in all patients who underwent conventional and speckle-tracking echocardiography at both timepoints was compared between the ticagrelor and clopidogrel groups. In addition, speckle-tracking echocardiographic measurements were evaluated for any correlations to post-PCI CTFC. Results: No statistically significant differences were detected between the ticagrelor and clopidogrel groups for ΔLVEF (+3.61 ± 5.08 % versus +2.21 ± 4.78 %; P = 0.18) and ΔLV-GLS (-1.53 ± 2.7 % versus -1.21 ± 3.05 %; P = 0.73). A strong negative correlation was found between post-PCI CTFC and the absolute value of LV-GLS at 90 days post-randomization (r = -0.33, P = 0.014). Conclusions: Our work suggests that both P2Y12-inhibitors are accompanied with a similar degree of myocardial recovery in the context of lytic therapy. Importantly, post-PCI microvascular integrity is a predictor of 3-month left ventricular systolic function in STEMI patients initially treated with thrombolysis.
