Impact of treatment management on the hospital stay in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
Article in BMC cardiovascular disorders, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundThe length of hospital stay in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is crucial for determining clinical outcomes, managing healthcare resources, controlling costs, and ensuring patient well-being. This study aimed to explore the impact of treatment approaches on the length of stay (LOS) for ACS patients.
methodsA total of 7109 ACS cases were retrospectively recruited from a hospital between 2018 and 2023. Demographical baseline data, laboratory examinations, and diagnostic and treatment information of the included subjects were extracted from electronic medical records to investigate the factors contributing to extended hospitalization and further explore the impact of treatment management on the LOS.
resultsAdvanced age, female sex, and elevated levels of B-type natriuretic peptide, C-reactive protein and higher low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were identified as risk factors for extended hospitalization. At the 0.2-0.9 quantile of LOS, compared with the non-invasive group, the percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty group and the stent implantation group exhibited decreases in LOS of 0.37-2.37 days and 0.12-2.28 days, respectively. Stratified analysis based on diagnosis showed that percutaneous coronary intervention decreased hospitalization time in the high quantile of LOS but conversely increased it in the low quantile.
conclusionPercutaneous coronary intervention is important for reducing hospitalization duration, particularly for patients susceptible to prolonged stays. Early and assertive management intervention, incorporating elements such as lipid-lowering therapy, and anti-inflammatory agents, is essential for improving outcomes within high-risk groups.
