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

backgroundRecent scientific reports have mainly focused on the comparison between coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention. However, the impact of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on mortality in patients who were treated by CABG was often ignored. Therefore, we aimed to compare the long-term mortality following CABG in patients with and without T2DM.

methodsStudies comparing the long-term adverse outcomes following CABG in patients with and without T2DM were searched from electronic databases. Total number of deaths (primary outcome) and events of myocardial infarction (MI), major adverse cerebrovascular and cardiovascular events (MACCEs), stroke, and repeated revascularization (secondary outcomes) were carefully extracted. An analysis was carried out whereby odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using the RevMan 5.3 software.

resultsEleven studies with a total number of 12,965 patients were included. Current results showed that mortality was significantly higher in patients with T2DM with OR: 1.54, 95% CI: 1.37 to 1.72, P < .00001; OR: 1.53, 95% CI: 1.36 to 1.72, P < .00001; and OR: 1.53, 95% CI: 1.26 to 1.87, P < .0001 at 1 to 15, 5 to 15, and 7 to 15 years, respectively. However, MI, repeated revascularization, MACCEs, and stroke were not significantly different with OR: 1.15, 95% CI: 0.81 to 1.64, P = .44; OR: 1.09, 95% CI: 0.88 to 1.36, P = .43; OR: 1.11, 95% CI: 0.83 to 1.48, P = .48; and OR: 1.69, 95% CI: 0.93 to 3.07, P = .08, respectively.

conclusionFollowing CABG, a significantly higher rate of mortality was continually observed in patients with T2DM compared to patients without T2DM showing that the former apparently has a high impact on the long-term mortality. However, even if T2DM is an independent risk factor for mortality, it should not be ignored that CABG remains the best revascularization strategy in these patients.
