Tenecteplase vs Reteplase in Patients with Acute ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Observational study in Clinical and applied thrombosis/hemostasis : official journal of the International Academy of Clinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeThe aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of both agents in patients with acute STEMI.
methodsThis was a multicenter retrospective observational study comparing tenecteplase and reteplase in patients with acute STEMI. The primary outcome was the incidence of failed thrombolysis. Secondary outcomes included the incidence of major bleeding, cardiogenic shock, re-infarction and mortality.
resultsA total of 282 patients were included, 229 and 53 received tenecteplase and reteplase, respectively. The incidence of failed thrombolysis was 33.2% in the tenecteplase group compared to 20.8% in the reteplase group (adjusted odds ratio 0.53, 95% confidence interval 0.25-1.1; p = 0.089). The incidence of major bleeding was 0.9% in the tenecteplase group and 5.7% in the reteplase group (p = 0.017). There was no significant difference in mortality or other secondary outcomes.
conclusionThere was no difference in the primary outcome of failed thrombolysis between tenecteplase and reteplase; however, major bleeding events were significantly higher in the reteplase group. Randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm our findings.
