Myocardial Infarction in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: Results from the Nationwide Readmission Database.
Article in Oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionChronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a hematological malignancy with an excellent prognostic outcome. After the advancements in CML treatment and the introduction of different tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), the life expectancy of CML patients has become equivalent to that of the general population. As a result, coronary artery disease is anticipated to be the leading cause of death among CML patients. Moreover, TKI use is associated with a risk of endothelial dysfunction, thrombosis, and cardiovascular events, including myocardial infarction. In this study, we compare the outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with CML to their matched non-CML counterparts.
methodThis is a retrospective cohort study using the Nationwide Readmission Database from January 2016 to December 2020. Adults with or without CML hospitalized for acute myocardial infarction and underwent PCI were included. The patients were identified using ICD-10 codes. The primary outcomes were in-hospital mortality and 30-day readmission rates. The secondary outcomes were PCI complications rates.
resultsOut of 2,727,619 patients with myocardial infarction, 2,124 CML patients were identified. A total of 888 CML patients underwent PCI. CML patients were significantly older (mean age: 68.34 ± 11.14 vs. 64.40 ± 12.61 years, p < 0.001) than non-CML patients without a difference in sex distribution. Hypertension (85.45% vs. 78.64%), diabetes (45.48% vs. 37.29), stroke (11.84% vs. 7.78) at baseline were significantly higher in the CML group. Prior myocardial infarction events (20.51% vs. 15.17%) and prior PCI procedure (24.47% vs. 16.89%) were significantly higher in the CML group. CML patients had a significantly longer hospital stay (4.66 ± 4.40 vs. 3.75 ± 4.62 days, p = 0.001). The primary outcomes did not differ between the comparison groups. The risk of post-PCI complications did not differ between the comparison groups in the propensity matched analysis except for coronary artery dissection (odds ratio [OR]: 0.10; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.02-0.65, p = 0.016) and ischemic stroke (OR: 0.35; 95% CI: 0.14-0.93, p = 0.034) which were lower in the CML group.
conclusionThis analysis showed no statistically significant difference in mortality, 30-day readmission, and post PCI complications rates between CML and non-CML patients. However, interestingly, CML patients may experience lower coronary artery dissection and ischemic stroke events than those without CML diagnosis.
