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

backgroundAcute myocardial infarction (AMI) combined with ventricular septal perforation (VSR) is still a highly fatal condition in the era of reperfusion therapy. The incidence rate has decreased to 0.2%-0.4% due to the popularization of percutaneous coronary intervention. However, the risk is significantly increased for those who fail to undergo revascularization in time, and the mortality rate remains high. The current core contradiction in clinical practice lies in the selection of surgical timing, and the disparity in medical resources significantly affects prognosis. There is an urgent need to optimize the identification of high-risk populations and individualized treatment strategies.

aimTo investigate the clinical features, determine the prognostic factors, and develop a predictive model for 30-day mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by ventricular septal rupture (AMI-VSR) residing in high-altitude regions.

methodsThis study retrospectively analyzed 48 AMI-VSR patients admitted to a Yunnan hospital from 2017 to 2024, with the establishment of survival (

resultsAge, uric acid (UA), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and low hemoglobin (Hb) were independent risk factors for 30-day mortality (odds ratios: 1.147, 1.006, 1.034, and 0.941, respectively;

conclusionThis study highlights age, UA, IL-6, and Hb as critical predictors of mortality in AMI-VSR patients at high altitudes. The validated nomogram provides a practical tool for early risk stratification and tailored interventions, addressing gaps in managing this high-risk population in resource-limited settings.
