Role of cardiac surgery in the post-myocardial infarction patient with heart failure.
Review in Current heart failure reports, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00833014 (Dynamic Annuloplasty System With Activation for the Treatment of Mitral Regurgitation), which is not on this map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.

Abstract
Limited donor availability for orthotopic cardiac transplantation has led surgeons to develop surgical alternatives to treat congestive heart failure as a result of ischemic cardiomyopathy. Coronary revascularization plays a clear role in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy, substantial viable myocardium subtended by coronary stenoses, and presence of anginal symptoms. It is unclear whether patients with heart failure symptoms but no angina benefit from bypass surgery. Some of these patients present with left ventricular dilatation and akinetic/dyskinetic scars, and are therefore candidates for surgical ventricular restoration. Current evidence is lacking as to whether ventricular reconstruction should be performed along with coronary revascularization. Functional mitral regurgitation is often seen in patients with end-stage cardiomyopathy, and its presence portends decreased survival. Mitral valve repair has been shown to improve quality of life, functional class, and to contribute to left ventricle reverse remodeling; however, it has been insufficient in improving survival.
