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

Introduction: The study aimed to compare the characteristics, treatment, and 12-month outcomes of patients after myocardial infarction (MI) and with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 40%, with or without atrial fibrillation (AF). Material and methods: The analysis involved 10,222 surviving patients who were enrolled in the ongoing, prospective Polish Registry of Acute Coronary Syndromes (PL-ACS). The major adverse cardiac events (MACE) involved death, non-fatal MI, rehospitalization due to heart failure (HF), and stroke within 12 months after MI. Results: Patients with AF were older (73.7 [13.1] vs. 68.3 [16.4], Conclusions: Patients after MI with LVEF < 40% and with AF, compared to those without AF, had worse clinical characteristics, were less frequently subjected to coronary angiography and PCI during hospitalization, and had significantly less favorable 12-month outcomes.
