The Impact of VCAM-1 expression on left ventricular performance following acute coronary syndromes.

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
Inflammatory pathways, particularly those involving vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), play a central role in post-ischemic myocardial remodeling. However, its relationship with left ventricle (LV) performance or volumetric changes has not been systematically examined. This study aimed to investigate the association between circulating VCAM-1 levels, LV volumes, and LV ejection fraction (LVEF), quantified using three-dimensional echocardiography (3-DE), in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). All patients underwent comprehensive clinical evaluation and 3-DE assessment within the first 24 hours of hospital admission. Concurrently, a full panel of locally available laboratory tests was performed, including serum sampling for VCAM-1 analysis. A follow-up evaluation, comprising repeated biological and echocardiographic measurements, was conducted two months after the index event. A total of 90 patients with ACS (mean age 54 ± 9 years; 75 males) were included in the analysis. Among these, 30 patients (33.3%) had a ≥10% increase in left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) at follow-up, indicative of adverse left ventricular remodeling. Baseline VCAM-1 levels were significantly correlated with subsequent changes in LVEDV and LVEF from admission to follow-up (r = -0.42,
