Disparity in the Under-Utilization of Novel P2Y12 Inhibitors in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.
Article in Cardiology research, 2024. 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
Background: The most recent guidelines (European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA)) all favor prasugrel/ticagrelor over clopidogrel in the setting of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We therefore sought to investigate which P2Y12 inhibitors were being prescribed in our community hospital setting upon discharge among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the setting of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: We identified patients presenting to two Metro Detroit Michigan hospitals with STEMI between January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2021 using the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan Cardiovascular Consortium (BMC2) PCI registry. The primary outcome was the choice of P2Y12 inhibitor prescribed on day of discharge following hospitalization for STEMI, and baseline characteristics were compared including race, sex and type of insurance. Results: A total of 366 patients presented to these two Metro Detroit hospitals from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2021. Female and non-White patients were more likely to be discharged on clopidogrel than ticagrelor or prasugrel (odds ratio (OR): 1.56, confidence interval (CI): 0.99 - 2.45, and OR: 1.43, CI: 0.91 - 2.25, respectively), however, did not reach statistical significance. Patients without private insurance presenting with STEMI were more likely to be discharged on clopidogrel (OR: 1.83, CI: 1.22 - 2.74), which did reach statistical significance in our cohort. Conclusions: In this retrospective single-center study evaluating BMC2 registry, we demonstrate a clinically significant disparity in prescribing patterns based on insurance, with trends for disparity based on gender and ethnicity.
