Mortality and Disparities of Acute Myocardial Infarction and Stroke in Korea, 2008-2019.

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
purposeAcute myocardial infarction (AMI) and stroke are leading global causes of death and can be used to assess acute care quality. We examined the 30-day mortality trends after emergency department admission for AMI and stroke in Korea from 2008 to 2019, focusing on regional and income disparities. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe AMI and stroke patients admitted to hospitals in Korea were collected from the claims data. We analyzed age and sex-standardized 30-day mortality for AMI, as well as hemorrhagic and ischemic strokes. Disparities in mortality were analyzed using absolute differences and relative ratios between the Organization for Economic Cooperation Development (OECD) and Korea, and among income levels and regions in Korea. A 12-year joinpoint regression was used to determine the annual percent change and the average annual percent change.
resultsThe trends in the 30-day AMI mortality of Korea were not significantly changed from 2008 to 2019; the gap remained at 1.2 between the OECD and Korea. Korea maintained lower mortality rates for hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke than the mean of OECD. In Korea, the 30-day hemorrhagic stroke mortality showed a constant decreasing trend for the higher-income group living in urban areas; it led to a widened gap based on income levels in urban areas. The 30-day mortality for ischemic stroke tended to decrease in the higher-income group and urban areas.
conclusionNational-level intervention is needed to manage regional and income-based disparities in AMI and stroke 30-day mortality. It is important to understand the variance in mortality rate by different geographical regions and income levels to establish an appropriate public health strategy.
