How Close Are We to Patient-Side Troponin Testing?
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Laboratory-based high-sensitivity cardiac troponin testing has been the pillar for emergency stratification of suspected acute coronary syndrome for well over a decade. Point-of-care troponin assays achieving the requisite analytical sensitivity have recently been developed and could accelerate such assessment. This review summarises the latest assays and describes their potential diverse clinical utility in the emergency department, community healthcare, pre-hospital, and other hospital settings. It outlines the current clinical data but also highlights the evidence gap, particularly the need for clinical trials using whole blood, that must be addressed for safe and successful implementation of point-of-care troponin analysis into daily practice. Additionally, how point-of-care troponin testing can be coupled with advances in biosensor technology, cardiovascular screening, and triage algorithms is discussed.
