A groundbreaking electrocardiographic observation: "Isoelectric horizontal ST-segment with sharp ST-T angle" a novel sign for acute coronary syndrome.

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
Consecutive suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS) cases were categorized into three groups: Group-1 (ST-depression), Group-2 (T-inversion), and Group-3 (remaining cases). Group-3 was subclassified into isoelectric horizontal ST-segment with sharp ST-T-angle (IHST) positive and IHST negative groups. They underwent serial high-sensitive Troponin-I testing. ACS incidence was 77.96 %, with 33.02 %, 15.96 %, and (15.04 %, 35.96 %) of patients in Groups 1, 2, and 3 (IHST positive, IHST negative), respectively. The presence of IHST exhibited higher sensitivity than T-inversion and greater specificity than ST-depression in detecting ACS. The presence of IHST sign additionally detected 15.04 % of ACS. The presence of IHST was significant among group-3 (p = 0.008) as well as the overall ACS cases (p = 0.048).
