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
Objective: To investigate whether fragmented QRS (fQRS) on electrocardiogram (ECG) obtained 24-48 hours after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) predicts left ventricular remodeling (LVRM) and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods: A total of 122 AMI patients who underwent PCI were prospectively enrolled and categorized into fQRS (n=48) and non-fQRS (n=74) groups based on post-PCI ECG findings. Clinical data, serum biomarkers, left ventricular function, and the incidence of MACE were compared between groups. Cox proportional hazards regression and logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent predictors of MACE and LVRM, respectively. Results: Patients in the fQRS group exhibited significantly higher levels of cardiac biomarkers (cTnI, CPK, CK-MB), more adverse lipid profiles, and impaired renal function parameters (all P < 0.05). Echocardiographic assessment revealed significantly reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (51.5% vs 57.2%, P < 0.001) and increased wall thickness in the fQRS group. During one-year follow-up, the fQRS group had a substantially higher incidence of MACE (35.4% vs 10.8%, P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis confirmed post-PCI fQRS as an independent predictor for both LVRM (OR: 3.12, 95% CI: 1.48-6.55, P = 0.003) and MACE (HR: 2.65, 95% CI: 1.52-4.63, P = 0.001). Conclusion: fQRS identified on ECG after PCI is a significant independent predictor of LVRM and MACE in AMI patients, providing valuable prognostic information for risk stratification.
