Factors associated with complications in ST-elevation myocardial infarction: a single-center experience.
Article in BMC cardiovascular disorders, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a major public health problem. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and identify the determinants of STEMI-related complications in the Cardiology Intensive Care Unit of the Sud Francilien Hospital Center (SFHC).
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the data of 315 patients with STEMI aged ≥ 18 years. Logistic regression was used to identify factors independently associated with the occurrence of complications.
resultsOverall, 315 patients aged 61.7 ± 13.4 years, of whom 261 were men, had STEMI during the study period. The hospital frequency of STEMI was 12.7%. Arrhythmias and acute heart failure were the main complications. Age ≥ 75 years (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 5.18; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.92-8.75), hypertension (aOR, 3.38; 95% CI, 1.68-5.82), and cigarette smoking (aOR, 3.52; 95% CI, 1.69-7.33) were independent determinants of acute heart failure. Meanwhile, diabetes mellitus (aOR, 1.74; 95% CI, 1.09-3.37), history of atrial fibrillation (aOR, 2.79; 95% CI, 1.66-4.76), history of stroke or transient ischemic attack (aOR, 1.99; 95% CI, 1.31-2.89), and low high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels (aOR, 3.70; 95% CI, 1.08-6.64) were independent determinants of arrhythmias.
conclusionSTEMI is a frequent condition at SFHC and is often complicated by acute heart failure and arrhythmias. Patients aged ≥ 75 years, those with hypertension or diabetes mellitus, smokers, those with a history of atrial fibrillation or stroke, and those with low HDL-C levels require careful monitoring for the early diagnosis and management of these complications.
