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

backgroundThe ambulance system is vital for the early management of patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction, reducing delays in diagnosis and treatment. This study examined the impact of transport mode on reperfusion therapy and mortality among patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction from 2000 to 2021.

methodsData from the ACSIS (Acute Coronary Syndrome Israeli Survey) registry 2000 to 2021 were analyzed. Three transport methods of patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction were evaluated. The impact on patient outcomes was assessed. Temporal trends from early (2000-2010) and late (2013-2021) periods were compared.

resultsOf 8035 patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction, 52.9% were transported by mobile intensive care units, 13.1% by basic life support ambulances, and 34% self-transported. Use of mobile intensive care units increased from 48.7% to 60.9% (

conclusionsImproved major adverse cardiovascular event and mortality rates are attributed to enhanced in-hospital and postdischarge care, including primary percutaneous coronary intervention and guideline-directed medical therapy rather than transport improvements, although these contribute to more stable arrival conditions.
