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

backgroundA new challenge in coronary artery disease treatment has emerged, where specific populations exhibit ischemic symptoms without any obstruction in the epicardial coronary artery. Instead, they exhibit slow coronary contrast flow, referred to as coronary slow flow (CSF). This study aims to identify several predictors of CSF.

resultsThis case-control study was conducted at the Regional General Hospital of West Nusa Tenggara Province in Indonesia from December 2016 to February 2024. The study involved sixty subjects, with 30 in each group of CSF and normal epicardial coronary artery angiogram (NECA). CSF is enforced by the TIMI frame count (TFC) greater than 27 frames. Among all the predictors studied, coronary artery diameter (p < 0.001) and random blood sugar (p = 0.049) were found to affect the CSF significantly. In the multivariate analysis, coronary artery diameter remained a significant predictor (adjusted OR 10.08, 95% CI 2.64-38.50, p < 0.001), with an optimal cut-off point of more than 3.56 mm, a sensitivity of 76.7%, and a specificity of 70.7% (AUC = 0.787, p < 0.001).

conclusionThe coronary artery diameter strongly predicts CSF in patients undergoing coronary angiography.
