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

Introduction: To determine the association of d-dimer levels with in-hospital death and coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTEACS). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data of 803 NSTEACS patients admitted to Beijing Anzhen Hospital between January 2022 and January 2024. Demographic, clinical, and laboratory data were compared between survivors (792 patients) and non-survivors (11 patients). Risk factors for in-hospital death were analyzed. The cutoff plasma d-dimer level was determined using the Youden index to predict in-hospital death in patients with NSTEACS, and the rates of in-hospital mortality and multi-vessel CAD (2-vessel + 3-vessel disease) were compared between patients with high (103 patients) and low d-dimer levels (700 patients). Results: D-dimer [odds ratio (OR): 1.003, Conclusion: The higher the d-dimer level in NSTEACS patients, the higher the risk of in-hospital death and the higher the probability of multi-vessel CAD. D-dimer levels were significantly associated with in-hospital death and multi-vessel CAD in NSTEACS patients.
