Lactated Ringer's as a Base Solution for del Nido Cardioplegia.
Observational study in The journal of extra-corporeal technology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Unavailability of Plasma-Lyte A precludes the utility of traditional del Nido cardioplegia in many countries. This observational study aimed to evaluate myocardial preservation and clinical outcomes when using lactated Ringer's solution as the base solution for del Nido cardioplegia as compared with our institute's standard blood cardioplegia strategy. Eighty-nine adult patients underwent cardiac surgery for acquired heart disease from February 2017 to November 2017 either with del Nido cardioplegia (n = 44) or blood cardioplegia (n = 45). Clinical data and outcomes were compared. Patient characteristics were similar between groups. Troponin T release was lower in the del Nido group on postoperative day 1 (.632 [.437, .907] vs. .827 [.599, 1.388] ng/mL;
