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

ObjectiveThis study aimed to explore the association between lactate dehydrogenase-to-albumin ratio and the severity of coronary artery disease in patients with acute myocardial infarction.MethodsPatients with acute myocardial infarction were categorized into three groups based on the lactate dehydrogenase-to-albumin ratio tertiles. Demographic characteristics and Gensini scores were collected. Logistic regression and the receiver operating characteristic analyses were performed to evaluate the predictive ability of the lactate dehydrogenase-to-albumin ratio for a high Gensini score (>60). The area under the curve was calculated.ResultsA total of 489 individuals were retrospectively enrolled in this study. Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that the highest lactate dehydrogenase-to-albumin ratio was an independent risk factor for a high Gensini score (odds ratio, 3.45; 95% confidence interval: 1.37-8.71; p = 0.009). The receiver operating characteristic analysis showed that the lactate dehydrogenase-to-albumin ratio had good predictive ability for identifying a high Gensini score (area under the curve, 0.743; 95% confidence interval: 0.698-0.788).ConclusionsLactate dehydrogenase-to-albumin ratio may serve as a novel indicator for predicting the severity of coronary artery disease in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
