The Prognostic Value of Biomarkers in Non-ST-Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients that are Treated by an Early Invasive Strategy: Insights from the OPTIMA-2 Trial.

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: Patients with non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) consists of a heterogenic population and improvement in identification of a specific risk profile is needed. In this study we aimed to obtain better insight in the role of different biomarkers for patients undergoing a routine invasive diagnostic strategy within 24 hours after admission. Methods: An Immediate or Early Invasive Strategy in Non-ST-Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome (OPTIMA-2) study was a randomized controlled prospective open-label multicentre trial, randomizing NSTE-ACS patients. An invasive strategy was either immediate ( Results: The OPTIMA-2 study included 249 patients. Overall, there was no significant increase in the risk of developing an adverse cardiovascular event in the first year if biomarker tertiles at admission were compared. However, mean NT-proBNP levels at admission were higher for patients that experienced all-cause death withing the first year (1.93 Conclusions: In NSTE-ACS patients treated by an early invasive strategy and administration of modern anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapy, multiple biomarker measurements during admission could not predict the occurrence of recurrent cardiovascular events within the first year of follow-up.
