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

aimsA paucity of studies addressed sex-related differences in clinical outcomes in the long term following acute coronary syndrome (ACS) treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). In these patients, it remains uncertain whether heart failure (HF) might exert a differential impact on the prognosis in the long term.

methodsWe queried a large-scale database of ACS patients undergoing PCI. The primary endpoint was new-onset HF. Secondary endpoints included mortality, myocardial infarction, re-PCI and ischaemic stroke. Propensity score matching was generated to balance group characteristics. A total of 3334 patients after propensity score matching were analysed. Follow-up was assessed at the 5 year term.

resultsAt 5 year follow-up, HF risk increased significantly in males versus females {17.9% vs. 14.8%, hazard ratio [HR] [95% confidence interval (CI)] = 1.22 [1.03-1.44], P = 0.02}. At 5 year follow-up, mortality was significantly higher in the male cohort as compared with the female cohort [HR (95% CI) = 1.23 (1.02-1.47), P = 0.02]. On landmark analysis, differences in mortality emerged after the first year and were maintained thereafter. Ischaemic outcomes were comparable between cohorts.

conclusionsFollowing ACS, males experienced a greater long-term risk of developing new-onset HF as compared with females. This difference remained consistent across all prespecified subgroups. Mortality was significantly higher in males. No differences were observed in ischaemic outcomes. New-onset HF emerges as a primary contributor to long-term gender disparities after ACS and a strong predictor of mortality in men with HF.
