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

objectivesWe aimed to investigate the association between the triglyceride glucose index (TGI) and mortality in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).

methodsThis retrospective study utilized data from the records of patients diagnosed with STEMI who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at the Cardiology Department of Private Aktif International Hospital between 2020 and 2023. Demographic data, medical history, laboratory results, and treatment processes of the patients were obtained from retrospective records. Patients were divided into low (TGI ≤ 8.6)-, medium (TGI = 8.6-9.2)-, and high (TGI ≥ 9.2)-TGI groups according to their TGI levels.

resultsThe average age of the patients was 62 ± 10 years, and 65% were men. The intracoronary thrombus burden of patients in the high-TGI group was found to be significantly higher compared to the low- and medium-TGI groups (

conclusionsOur results show that high TGI levels are associated with increased thrombus burden and high mortality rates in STEMI. TGI can be used not only in predicting STEMI but also in early risk stratification and treatment planning for STEMI patients.
