Eosinophil percentage and platelet counts: Association with in-hospital mortality in ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction.
Article in ARYA atherosclerosis, 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
backgroundST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) results from coronary artery blockage due to ruptured atherosclerotic plaque. Eosinophils play a dual role in STEMI, contributing to thrombus formation and tissue repair. This study investigates the association between eosinophil percentage, platelet counts, and in-hospital prognosis in STEMI patients.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted from September 2019 to February 2020, including patients aged 18 and above with a STEMI diagnosis. In-hospital mortality, arrhythmia, and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were recorded. Demographic data, clinical manifestations, and laboratory investigations were collected. Data were analyzed using SPSS (version 25.0), with a P value of <0.05 considered significant.
resultsThe study included 100 STEMI patients with a mean age of 65±13.26 years; 75% were male. The mortality rate was 13%. A significant relationship was found between eosinophil percentage and mortality (p=0.032), and platelet count also correlated significantly with mortality (p=0.008). The association between eosinophil percentage and EF was significant (p<0.001). The area under the ROC curve was 0.705 (95% CI 0.605 - 0.792) for platelet counts and 0.679 (95% CI 0.577 - 0.770) for eosinophil percentage in differentiating live and expired patients.
conclusionPlatelet count could be a significant prognostic indicator for in-hospital outcomes in STEMI patients, suggesting an increased risk of mortality. Additionally, there is a notable relationship between eosinophil percentage and ejection fraction (EF).
