Association Between the Timing of Coronary Angiography, Targeted Temperature Management, and Neurological Outcomes After Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest: A Nationwide Population-Based Registry Study in Korea.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2025. 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
backgroundCoronary angiography (CAG) and targeted temperature management (TTM) may improve clinical outcomes after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. This study aimed to assess whether the intervention effects differed according to timing and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) performance. METHODS AND
resultsAdult patients with presumed cardiac cause who underwent CAG and TTM within 24 hours following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest were included from the Korean nationwide out-of-hospital cardiac arrest registry. We investigated the associations between the timing of interventions and whether CAG was performed before TTM initiation (CAG-first) and good neurological outcomes. Intervention times were divided into 4 quartiles, and odds ratios (ORs) were calculated with the fourth quartile as the reference. A total of 844 patients were enrolled. CAG and TTM were initiated a median of 2.4 hours (interquartile range [IQR], 1.8-3.2) and 4.3 hours (IQR, 3.2-6.0) after OHCA, respectively. Univariable analysis revealed associations between the earliest intervention groups and good neurological outcomes. However, after adjustment, neither the intervention time nor intervention prioritization was associated with good outcomes. The first quartile of CAG time (<1.8 hours) was associated with good outcomes in the subgroup with PCI (n=570) (adjusted OR [aOR], 1.93 [95% CI, 1.10-3.40]). In the subgroup without PCI (n=274), early TTM initiation (<3.2 hours) and CAG-first were significantly associated with outcomes (aOR, 3.08 [95% CI, 1.36-6.96]; aOR, 0.44 [95% CI, 0.20-0.97]; respectively).
conclusionsNeither intervention time nor intervention prioritization was associated with good outcomes. However, early CAG and TTM independently predicted good outcomes in the subgroups with PCI and without PCI, respectively.
