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

Objectives: Guidelines recommend emergent coronary angiography (CAG) for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients with ST-segment elevation (STE) and selective angiography for those without STE. However, real-world data reporting coronary artery status in OHCA patients without STE are scarce, especially in an Asian population. This study evaluated the coronary artery status and associated outcomes in Asian OHCA patients without STE, comparing the results with those of patients with STE. Methods: This retrospective study enrolled 345 OHCA survivors with presumed cardiogenic cause who underwent CAG. Based on electrocardiographic evidence of STE following return of spontaneous circulation, the patients were segmented into an STE group ( Results: Compared with the STE group, the non-STE group had a lower but still high prevalence of coronary artery stenosis (69.7% vs 91.3%, Conclusion: In OHCA survivors with presumed acute coronary syndrome, there was a high prevalence of coronary artery stenosis and multivessel involvement in patients without STE. Moreover, patients without STE had comparable survival-to-discharge and neurological outcomes with patients with STE.
