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

Background: Myocardial infarction and stroke are prevalent and potentially fatal urgent medical conditions. Stroke as a subsequent cardiovascular event after the myocardial infarction significantly decreases the odds of survival for the patient. Clinical case: We report a case of a 48-year-old man admitted to Vilnius University Hospital Santaros Klinikos due to an ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Patient also experienced a cardioembolic cerebral infarction on the tenth day in the hospital. The patient survived this dual infarction, his general condition improved and he was discharged to the rehabilitation center. Discussion and Conclusions: Cardiovascular diseases are the most common cause of death in the world. Stroke, as a complication of myocardial infarction, affects 0.76-3.2% of patients and demonstrates an increasing incidence trend. In such a dual infarction, in-hospital mortality can be as high as 18-41%. It is hopeful that targeted research and evidence-based prevention with treatment can improve outcomes of concomitant myocardial infarction and stroke.
