Time to Treatment Delay and Clinical Indicators in Patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study.
Article in Journal of caring sciences, 2024. 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
Introduction: ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) continues to be a significant global health issue, necessitating ongoing monitoring of care processes to enhance quality. This study aimed to examine time to treatment delay and clinical indicators in patients with STEMI undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with the recruitment of 313 patients with STEMI treated with PPCI Tabriz (Iran) in 2023. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Mann-Whitney U test, the Kruskal-Wallis test, the chi-square test, and regression analysis in SPSS v.13 software. Results: Most of the patients were men and half of them were 60 years old or younger. The median door-to-balloon time [IQR] was 80 [49-140] minutes. The pre-PCI center delay time and treatment delay time were 191 and 310 minutes, respectively. There was a statistically significant association between the patient's place of residence, the admission type in the PCI center, and the pre-PCI center delay time. In addition, there was a statistically significant association between treatment delay time, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), baseline troponin I level, angioplasty outcome, and receiving acute coronary syndrome (ACS) drugs at the pre-PCI center. Conclusion: The longer pre-PCI center delay time resulted in a longer total treatment delay. To reduce delays, it is proposed to improve the logistics surrounding these procedures for patients with STEMI and to provide appropriate education about the STEMI management program to all stockholders.
