Prehospital survival of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction requiring out-of-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation - a nationwide, real-world observational study.
Observational study in BMC emergency medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe mortality risk of patients presenting with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been extensively researched. Even though STEMI can be diagnosed before hospital admission, prehospital mortality has been less frequently studied. We aimed to analyze the outcomes of patients with STEMI requiring out-of-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
methodsFrom a large, nationwide prehospital case report database, we collected data from 668 patients requiring CPR because of ambulance-witnessed OHCA (out-of-hospital cardiac arrest) who were diagnosed with STEMI by ECG before cardiac arrest. Utstein-style consensus reporting guidelines were followed. The endpoint was hospital admission with spontaneous circulation. In addition to descriptive statistics, we also aimed to identify predictors of the outcome using multivariable logistic regression. Model performance was characterized by c-statistics and multiple fitting methods. Internal validation was performed using calibration intercept and slope.
resultsUsing CPR initial rhythm, age, initial heart rate, initial systolic blood pressure, and ECG localization of STEMI as predictors, we found that the constructed logistic regression model showed good discriminative ability, with a c-statistic of 0.844 (95% CI = 0.8105-0.8787). The overall model fit was good, with Hosmer & Lemeshow p = 0.979. The value of Nagelkerke R
conclusionsThis model can be used to estimate the probability of hospital admission following resuscitation due to ambulance-witnessed OHCA in patients with STEMI. Further studies are needed to improve the possibility of definitive in-hospital treatment for a better survival rate. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
