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

Background: This investigation aimed to examine the association between subjective health perception and mortality risk in individuals diagnosed with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Methods: This study conducted a multicenter retrospective analysis of 29,465 patients with NSTEMI from 82 tertiary and secondary hospitals in Tianjin, China (2010-2023). Patients were stratified into self-rated health (SRH)-satisfied (n = 28,835) and SRH-dissatisfied (n = 630) cohorts based on self-reported health assessments. Propensity score matching (1:3 ratio) was used to balance baseline characteristics, yielding a final sample of 2514 patients. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality over a median follow-up of 1477 days. Multivariable Cox regression was used to identify predictors of mortality, and Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to compare survival between groups. Results: The SRH-dissatisfied cohort exhibited advanced age, reduced percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) utilization, and greater comorbidity burden (diabetes, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, cerebrovascular/peripheral vascular disease, chronic lung disease; Conclusions: Self-rated health independently predicts mortality risk in patients with NSTEMI.
