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

The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines for the management of acute coronary syndrome without persistent ST-segment elevation (NSTE-ACS) published in August 2020, replace the former NSTE-ACS guidelines published in 2015. These updated guidelines have some relevant changes for the clinical practice, which include the diagnostic work-up, risk stratification, antithrombotic therapy, invasive or noninvasive coronary diagnostics and also long-term treatment. New sections deal with spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) and also newly introduced quality indicators for NSTE-ACS treatment. The diagnostic work-up using highly sensitive cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) assays is emphasized with the recommendation to use fast triage decisions that enable an early rule-in (no STEMI) or rule-out (NSTEMI probable) in the emergency room or chest pain unit. In antiplatelet therapy a greater individualization of the treatment concept is recommended based on the individual ischemic/thrombotic events and bleeding complications. Some new aspects were introduced for timing of invasive coronary angiography; however, principally the very high-risk group should still immediately undergo coronary angiography and the high-risk group should undergo an invasive angiography within 24 h. In risk stratification, the former intermediate risk group has been removed, instead it is now emphasized that low-risk patients should be treated similarly to patients with chronic coronary syndrome.
