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.
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 The aim of this study was to emphasize the impact of the aspartate aminotransferase-to-alanine aminotransferase ratio (De Ritis ratio) on the prognosis of patients with stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). MATERIAL AND METHODS Patients with SCAD who underwent elective PCI at Shinonoi General Hospital were included. SCAD was defined as epicardial coronary artery diameter stenosis ≥90% or epicardial coronary artery diameter stenosis ≥75% accompanied by symptoms or stress-induced myocardial ischemia. Clinical data were collected, and cardiovascular events were followed after discharge. One-way Cox proportional risk analysis was performed to assess the risk stratification value of the De Ritis ratio, using major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) and all-cause mortality as the primary and secondary endpoints, respectively. The independent risk stratification value was evaluated by multivariate Cox proportional risk analysis. RESULTS Among 204 patients with SCAD undergoing PCI, during a median follow-up period of 706 days (24 months), 13.7% (28/204) patients experienced MACCE, and 8.8% (18/204) experienced all-cause mortality. Multifactorial Cox regression analysis revealed that a high De Ritis ratio was an independent risk factor for MACCE (HR=2.96, 95% CI: 1.29-6.78, P=0.01) and all-cause mortality (HR=3.61, 95% Cl: 1.31-9.86, P=0.012). The sensitivity analysis further confirmed the incremental value of the De Ritis ratio for adverse cardiovascular events. CONCLUSIONS A high De Ritis ratio was an independent and valuable risk stratification factor for MACCE and all-cause mortality in patients with SCAD after PCI.
