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

Autologous saphenous vein is commonly used as a conduit to bypass atherosclerotic lesions in coronary and femoral arteries. Despite the wide use of arterial conduits, which are less susceptible to complications and failure, as alternative conduits, the saphenous vein will continue to be used in coronary artery bypass grafting until acceptable alternative approaches are evaluated. Hence, preservation of vein graft patency is essential for the long-term success. Gene therapy is attractive in this setting as an ex-vivo technology to genetically manipulate the conduit before grafting. The use of safe and efficient vectors for delivery is a necessity as well as a strategy to improve patency in the long term. Here, we review the current clinical practice, the pathogenesis of bypass graft failure and adenovirus-mediated gene therapy strategies designed to improve late vein graft failure by modulation of smooth muscle cells in the vein wall.
