1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundAcute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains a leading global cause of mortality. This study explores predictors of in-hospital mortality among AMI patients using advanced machine learning (ML) techniques.

methodsData from 7422 AMI patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at Tehran Heart Center (2015-2021) were analyzed. Fifty-eight clinical, demographic, and laboratory variables were evaluated. Seven ML algorithms, including Random Forest (RF), logistic regression with LASSO, and XGBoost, were implemented. The data set was divided into training (70%) and testing (30%) subsets, with fivefold cross-validation. The class imbalance was addressed using the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE). Model predictions were interpreted using SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP).

resultsIn-hospital mortality occurred in 129 patients (1.74%). RF achieved the highest predictive performance, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.924 (95% CI 0.893-0.954), followed by XGBoost (AUC 0.905) and logistic regression with LASSO (AUC 0.893). Sensitivity analysis in STEMI patients confirmed RF's robust performance (AUC 0.900). SHAP analysis identified key predictors, including lower left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF; 33.24% vs. 43.46% in survivors, p < 0.001), higher fasting blood glucose (190.38 vs. 132.29 mg/dL, p < 0.001), elevated serum creatinine, advanced age (70.92 vs. 61.88 years, p < 0.001), and lower LDL-C levels. Conversely, BMI showed no significant association (p = 0.456).

conclusionML algorithms, particularly RF, effectively predict in-hospital mortality in AMI patients, highlighting critical predictors such as LVEF and biochemical markers. These insights offer valuable tools for enhancing clinical decision-making and improving patient outcomes.
