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
Background: The complexity of coronary artery lesions and glucose metabolic disorders contributes to adverse long-term prognosis following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This study aimed to evaluate the synergistic effect of coronary artery lesions-assessed by the SYNTAX score-and glucose metabolic disorders-quantified by the hemoglobin glycation index (HGI)-on predicting major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) after PCI. Methods: A total of 609 coronary artery disease (CAD) patients undergoing PCI were enrolled in the final analysis. HGI was calculated by subtracting the predicted HbA1c (derived from fasting plasma glucose regression) from the observed HbA1c. Pearson's coefficients were used for correlation analyses. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were used to assess associations with MACCEs. Mediation analysis evaluated whether the SYNTAX score mediated the HGI-MACCEs relationship. Results: Patients with higher HGI and SYNTAX scores (≥1.16764 and >22, respectively) exhibited a significantly increased mortality risk (p = 0.0052) and more complex coronary lesions. Multivariable analysis confirmed HGI and SYNTAX score as independent predictors of MACCEs. Additionally, the SYNTAX score partially mediated the association between HGI and adverse outcomes, with a mediation proportion of 13.05%. Conclusion: The HGI and SYNTAX score exert a synergistic effect in predicting the severity of CAD and the risk of adverse prognosis after PCI. It highlights the necessity of integrating both metabolic and anatomical assessment indices for comprehensive risk stratification of CAD patients undergoing PCI.
