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

The use of a beta-blocker has been an integral part of treatment following myocardial infarction for decades. However, some of the studies on which this treatment recommendation is based were carried out half a century ago. In the meantime, the widespread establishment of coronary reperfusion in particular has fundamentally changed the treatment of acute myocardial infarction. For patients with preserved systolic left ventricular function, the benefit of beta-blocker therapy following myocardial infarction can currently no longer be clearly demonstrated. This review summarizes the evidence for beta-blocker therapy from the pre-coronary reperfusion era to the present era of coronary reperfusion.
