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

The aim of the current study was to identify surgical factors associated with long-term patency of grafts used in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The present study analyzed data from 127 patients who underwent CABG at our institute between 2000 and 2006 and presented for ambulatory examination and coronary computed tomography angiography evaluation of graft patency in 2016 (139.78±36.64 months post-CABG). The 127 patients received 340 grafts (2.68 grafts/patient) and 399 distal anastomoses (3.14 anastomoses/patient), 220 (55.14%) with arterial grafts and 179 (44.86%) with saphenous vein grafts. Graft patency varied according to coronary territory, proximal anastomosis type (
