ICU mortality of post-myocardial infarction ventricular septal defect complicated by cardiogenic shock: a retrospective multicentric cohort.

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
purposePost myocardial infarction ventricular septal defect (PMI-VSD) complicated by refractory cardiogenic shock is associated with an extremely high mortality rate. We sought to evaluate the factors associated with in-ICU mortality in patients with PMI-VSD-related cardiogenic shock.
methodsPatients with PMI-VSD complicated by cardiogenic shock, admitted in 10 French tertiary centers between 2008 and 2022, were retrospectively included. The primary outcome was in-ICU mortality. The timing of surgery was classified as early (≤ 7 days) or late (> 7 days). Multivariable analysis was performed to identify the variables associated with in-ICU mortality.
resultsA total of 138 patients were included (mean age 70 (± 10) years, female sex 54%). Of these, 116 patients (84%) received MCS, including 43 patients (31%) with VA-ECMO. VSD surgical closure was performed in 93 patients (67%, 60 early, 33 late). Only 2 patients had percutaneous closure without surgical repair. A total of 84 patients (61%) died. The type of surgical management strategy was significantly associated with in-ICU mortality (no surgery, 100%; early surgery, 45%; late surgery, 27%; p
conclusionDelayed VSD closure is associated with improved outcomes in PMI-VSD complicated by cardiogenic shock.
