Morphological Changes of Peri-Coronary Adipose Tissue Together with Elevated NLR in Acute Myocardial Infarction Patients in-Hospital.
Article in Journal of inflammation research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Inflammation triggers atherosclerotic plaque rupture, leading to acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Following AMI, peri-coronary adipose tissue (PCAT) undergoes a transition from lipid-rich to hydrophilic characteristics due to vascular inflammation. This study investigates PCAT changes and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio levels during AMI. Patients and Methods: 60 AMI patients undergoing coronary computed tomography angiography and angiography (Jan 2020-Jun 2022) were studied 60 age, gender, BMI-matched stable angina, and 60 non-coronary artery disease patients were included. Siemens VB20.0 measured PCAT-volume and fat attenuation index (FAI). Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio levels were calculated by peripheral blood tests. Results: The PCAT volume and PCAT-FAI gradually increased across the control, stable angina, and AMI groups, with a corresponding gradual rise in NLR. NLR exhibited weak positive correlation with PCAT-FAI (r=0.35) and PCAT-volume (r=0.24). Multivariable logistic regression identified increased PCAT-volume, PCAT-FAI and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio as possible independent AMI risk factors. No significant PCAT-volume difference was observed between infarct-related artery (IRA) and non-IRA for all three coronary arteries. Only PCAT-FAI around IRA-LAD was higher than non-IRA-LAD (-74.84±6.93 HU vs -79.04±8.68 HU). PCAT-FAI around culprit vessels in AMI was higher than corresponding lesion related vessel in SA. PCAT-volume around narrowed non-IRA in AMI was higher than that of corresponding LRV in SA. PCAT-FAI of narrowed non-IRA-LADs and non-IRA-LCXs in AMI were elevated compared to LADs (-78.46±8.56HU vs -83.13±8.34 HU) and LCXs (-73.83±10.63 HU vs -81.38±7.88 HU) of lesion related vessel in stable angina. Conclusion: We found an association between AMI and inflammation in the coronary perivascular adipose tissue and systemic inflammatory response.
