Myocardial protection in on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting surgery: analysis of the effectiveness of the use of retrograde Celsior
Article in Therapeutic advances in cardiovascular disease, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundWe analyzed the adequacy of the myocardial protection achieved with a single dose of retrograde crystalloid Celsior®, compared with an accepted standard (microplegia), in on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (CABG).
methodsThis was a retrospective comparative clinical study conducted in a single institution that included all the patients operated on who had elective isolated on-pump CABG, from March 2006 to June 2014. We evaluated maximum postoperative troponin T (TnT) as a marker of myocardial damage, adjusted for possible confounders using propensity score matching. We also analyzed markers of recovery of myocardial function, and the safety of the intravenous use of Celsior®.
resultsDuring the study period, 261 patients were included, divided in two groups: (a) continuous retrograde blood-based microplegia (114 patients); (b) retrograde single-dose crystalloid Celsior® (147 patients). The propensity score adjusted maximum TnT was significantly lower in the Celsior group [average treatment effect = -0.55 ng/dl; 95% confidence interval (CI) -1.10 to -0.1 ng/dl; p = 0.048]. There were no differences in the postoperative use of intra-aortic balloon of counterpulsation or in the requirements of high-dose inotropic medications. In-hospital mortality was equivalent in both study groups ( p = 0.73); surgical re-exploration because of bleeding was equivalent ( p = 0.37). There were no differences in prolonged mechanical ventilation ( p = 0.65) and intensive care unit length of stay ( p = 0.87).
conclusionAn isolated single dose of retrograde Celsior® may be an effective and safe myocardial protection strategy in on-pump CABG.
