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

BACKGROUND/

aimThe aim of this study was to determine predictors of major adverse cardiovascular events, including MACE (mortality, non-fatal recurrent infarction, non-fatal stroke, and target vessel revascularization-TVR) in stable post-STEMI patients.

methodWe analyzed STEMI patients without cardiogenic shock at admission included in our STEMI Register. The patients were treated with primary PCI. The follow-up period was eight years.

resultsFrom 1 December 2006 to 31 December 2016, a total of 3079 patients were included in the Register. In the first year, MACE was registered in 348 (11.3%) patients. The remaining patients were considered stable. They were included in further analysis. At eight years, the rates were as follows: MACE 3.9%, non-fatal recurrent infarction 2.1%, TVR 1.8%, non-fatal stroke 0.5%, and mortality 2.1%. Predictors for 8-year MACE were age >60 years (60-69 vs. <60 years HR 1.65; 70-79 vs. <60 years HR 1.82; ≥80 vs. <60 years HR 3.16), EF < 50% (EF 40-49% HR 2.38; EF < 40% HR 2.32), diabetes mellitus (HR 1.49), and 3-vessel coronary artery disease (HR 1.44).

conclusionsFour predictors identified stable post-STEMI patients who remained at a higher risk for the occurrence of MACE. Stable post-STEMI patients with one or more of these risk factors may require more aggressive secondary prevention measures or a personalized approach to improve their prognosis.
