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

backgroundGlycated proteins (advanced glycation endproducts, AGE) in tissue are associated with degenerative diseases. This study evaluated the role of sRAGE (soluble receptor for advanced glycation endproducts), a decoy receptor of AGEs in blood, for the outcome of patients after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

methodsA total of 90 patients undergoing CABG were analysed in two centres. Perioperative blood samples were collected before surgery up to 1 week postoperatively. sRAGE was measured by ELISA. Patients were subdivided regarding age (< 64 versus > 70 years, 14 % versus 35 % female), euroSCORE (< 3 versus > 4, 14 % versus 29 % female) and sRAGE changes between sternotomy and end of the operation (< 30 % versus > 45 %, 33 % versus 33 % female) and subsequently analysed with respect of postoperative outcome parameters.

resultsPreoperative sRAGE values did not correlate with the outcome of the patients. sRAGE levels increase within 10 min from 1,539 ± 96 to 5,311 ± 187 pg/ml after sternotomy, then returning to baseline levels within 2 days after surgery. Comparing the analysed possible risk factors age, euroSCORE and sRAGE changes, no difference was observed regarding 30-day mortality. Age and the euroSCORE are superior with respect of tachyarrythmia, whereas sRAGE kinetics seems to be superior with respect of prolonged postoperative respiration time/stay in the intensive care unit or catecholamine support.

conclusionA prolonged, increased intraoperative sRAGE level is a new outcome predictor for patients undergoing CABG surgery, mutually complementary to the euroSCORE.
