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

backgroundBoth nonthyroidal illness syndrome and renal dysfunction are associated with increased mortality risk in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, it is unclear whether combined NTIS and renal dysfunction further increase mortality risk. Therefore, our aim is to investigate whether combined NTIS and renal dysfunction further increases mortality risk in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

methodsA total of 1295 inpatients with AMI were divided into normal group (n = 692), NTIS group (n = 139), renal dysfunction group (n = 304), and combined NTIS and renal dysfunction group (n = 160). Heart function, in-hospital, all-cause and cardiovascular mortality were compared among the four groups.

resultsAfter adjustment for age and sex, left ventricular ejection fraction was significantly lower in the combined group (48 ± 11%) than in the NTIS group (52 ± 10%, P = 0.017), the renal dysfunction group (52 ± 10%, P = 0.001) and the normal group (56 ± 8%, P < 0.001). After controlling for confounding factors, compared with the normal group, the NTIS and the renal dysfunction group represented higher risks of in-hospital mortality (OR: 3.643, P = 0.028; OR:3.135, P = 0.042, respectively), all-cause mortality (HR: 2.138, P = 0.007; HR: 2.050, P = 0.003, respectively), and cardiovascular mortality (HR:2.134, P = 0.042; HR:2.237, P = 0.010, respectively). Compared to those in the NTIS and the renal dysfunction group, the patients in the combined group showed a further increased risk for in-hospital mortality (OR:2.916, P = 0.039; OR:2.487, P = 0.036, respectively), all-cause mortality (HR: 1.939, P = 0.015; HR: 2.020, P = 0.002, respectively) and cardiovascular mortality (HR:2.420, P = 0.010; HR:2.303, P = 0.002, respectively).

conclusionsBoth NTIS and renal dysfunction increase short-term in-hospital mortality, and long-term all-cause and cardiovascular mortality risk in patients with AMI. Furthermore, the coexistence of NTIS and renal dysfunction presents further increased mortality risk in AMI patients.
