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

backgroundB-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is a hormone with pleiotropic cardioprotective properties. Previously in our non-placebo-controlled non-blinded pilot study (BELIEVE) in human ST-segment-elevation anterior acute myocardial infarction (AMI), a 72-hour intravenous (IV) infusion of recombinant human BNP (nesiritide) at a dose of 0.006 μg kg(-1) min(-1) suppressed plasma aldosterone, reduced cardiac dilatation, and improved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (LVEF) at 1 month compared with baseline. METHODS AND

designThe BELIEVE II study is a phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-center clinical trial to assess the efficacy of 72-hour IV infusion of nesiritide therapy (0.006 μg kg(-1) min(-1)) in humans with first-time ST-segment-elevation anterior AMI and successful reperfusion, in preventing adverse LV remodeling and preserving LV function. A total of 60 patients will be randomized to placebo or nesiritide therapy. The primary efficacy end point is LV end-systolic and end-diastolic dimensions determined by multiple gated acquisition scan between placebo and nesiritide groups at 30 days; secondary end points include 30-day LVEF, diastolic function, infarct size, LV mass, and combined total mortality and heart failure hospitalization.

conclusionsThis will be the first randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess the clinical efficacy of nesiritide in human ST-segment-elevation anterior AMI.
