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: The History, Electrocardiogram, Age, Risk factors, and Troponin I (HEART) score is a simple method to risk stratify patients with chest pain according to the risk for incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs). Materials and methods: A 202-patient prospective, single center study at Sri Siddhartha Medical College, Tumkur. Patients included were those who were presented to the emergency department (ED) due to non-traumatic chest pain, irrespective of age or any previous medical treatments, and were later referred to the cardiac care unit (CCU), cardiology department (CD). The end point of the study was the incidence of MACE. Results: There was a high occurrence of endpoint-myocardial infarction (MI) as MACE among patients with a high-risk HEART score ( Conclusions: Our prospective study demonstrates the high sensitivity of the HEART score to effectively risk stratify patients and project the phenomenon of MACE. We support the use of the HEART score as a fast and accurate risk stratification tool in the ED. How to cite this article: Anwar I, Sony D.
