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

We analysed cognitive impairment (CI) during the peri-myocardial infarction (MI) period and after 6 months. The study included 326 patients. Cognitive function was assessed using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and the Clock Drawing Test (CDT). Routine laboratory and echocardiography data were collected. We distinguished 4 groups of patients: 1 - CI present peri-infarction and after 6 months; 2 - CI present only peri-infarction; 3 - CI present only after 6 months; 4 - without CI. Groups constituted 8.9%, 16.3%, 7.7% and 67.1% of participants (as assessed by MMSE), respectively. In those who improved (group 2) or with worsened cognitive function (group 3), analogous changes in attention function occurred. There was a group of patients with CI on the MMSE who performed the CDT correctly, 12% peri-infarct and 11% at 6-month follow-up, respectively. Patients with a normal CDT score but CI found in the MMSE had impaired attention function. Cognitive function improves in some patients, and deteriorates in others after MI. The uniform type of impaired cognitive function allows us to assume a uniform etiology of CI. Performing the CDT and using the MMSE component assessing attention could prove sufficient for the initial assessment of cognitive functions in patients after MI.
