Perioperative urinary thromboxane metabolites and outcome of coronary artery bypass grafting: a nested case-control study.
Observational study in BMJ open, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01573143 (Statin Therapy In Cardiac Surgery), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

Abstract
objectiveAs a marker of in vivo thromboxane generation, high-level urinary thromboxane metabolites (TXA-M) increase the occurrence of cardiovascular events in high-risk patients. To investigate whether perioperative urinary TXA-M level is associated with major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, we designed a nested case-control study.
designObservational, nested case-control study.
settingSingle-centre outcomes research in Fuwai Hospital, Beijing, China.
participantsOne thousand six hundred and seventy Chinese patients undergoing CABG surgery from September 2011 to October 2013.
methodsWe obtained urinary samples from 1670 Chinese patients undergoing CABG 1 hour before surgery (pre-CABG), and 6 hours (post-CABG 6 hours) and 24 hours after surgery (post-CABG 24 hours). Patients were followed up for 1 year, and we observed 56 patients had MACCE. For each patient with MACCE, we matched three control subjects. Perioperative urinary TXA-M of the three time spots was detected in these 224 patients.
resultsPost-CABG 24 hours TXA-M is significantly higher than that of patients without MACCE (11 101vs8849 pg/mg creatine, P=0.007). In addition, patients in the intermediate tertile and upper tertile of post-CABG 24 hours urinary TXA-M have a 2.2 times higher (HR 2.22, 95% CI 1.04 to 4.71, P=0.038) and a 2.8 times higher (HR 2.81, 95% CI 1.35 to 5.85, P=0.006) risk of 1 year MACCE than those in the lower tertile, respectively.
conclusionsIn conclusion, post-CABG 24 hours urinary TXA-M elevation is associated with an increase of 1 year adverse events after CABG, indicating that the induction of cyclo-oxygenase-2 by surgery-related inflammatory stimuli or platelet turnover may be responsible for the high levels of post-CABG urinary TXA-M.
