In-Hospital Complications of Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery in Patients Older Than 70 Years.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular and thoracic research, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionCardiovascular diseases contribute to mortality and morbidity in aged individuals. It is crucial to have a clear perception of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) risks and benefits to make logical decision in aged patients. Unfortunately, cardiovascular disease researches have focused very little on the aged patients. The aim of the present study is to evaluate in-hospital complications in patients older than 70 years old following CABG operation to determine if CABG is preferred or not considering present complications.
methodsIn a cross sectional study, 500 patients older than 70 years old were randomly selected (70-75 patients for each year) from March 2004 to March 2011. Descriptive statistical methods were used for evaluating the obtained data.
resultsOverall, 70.6% of patients (353 individuals) were male and 29.4% were female (147 individuals). Totally, 107 patients (21.4%) had complications during hospitalization; these complications were statistically significant in male individuals. Complications included Stroke 1.6%, deep vein thrombosis 0.8%, MI 2.4%, repeat surgery 2.80%, bleeding 2.40%, and more than 48 hours mechanical ventilation in 13.4%.
conclusionNeed for more than 48 hours mechanical ventilation and bleeding after surgery were the most occurred complications in these patients.
