Thrombus aspiration in primary percutaneous coronary intervention in acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients with high thrombus burden: one-year outcomes in a tertiary healthcare center in Ho Chi Minh City.
Article in The Egyptian heart journal : (EHJ) : official bulletin of the Egyptian Society of Cardiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPrimary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can dislodge atherosclerotic debris, risking microvascular embolism. Thrombus aspiration (TA) before stenting in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients has been linked to reduced mortality, lower recurrence of heart attacks, and improved cardiac function. However, limited research exists on the effectiveness of TA in Vietnam, underscoring the need for further studies to enhance cardiovascular care. This prospective observational study was conducted to evaluate the role of TA in STEMI patients admitted with a substantial thrombus burden at Nguyen Tri Phuong Hospital.
resultsOut of 92 participants, 68 underwent TA treatment. Post-treatment, the TA group exhibited better TIMI and TMP flow grades and a higher rate of ST-segment normalization, with no significant difference in major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) at 30-day and 12-month follow-ups compared to those untreated.
conclusionsTA during PCI enhances ST-segment normalization and TIMI and TMP scores in STEMI patients, improving myocardial perfusion. No difference in MACE occurrence was noted between groups after 30 days and 12 months, suggesting TA's potential benefits without increasing adverse outcomes.
