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

backgroundType 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and is common among patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. The main objective of our study was to investigate the impact of DM type 2, and its treatment subgroups, on short- and long-term mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who undergo CABG.

methodsThe study included 1307 patients enrolled from the biennial Acute Coronary Syndrome Israeli Survey between 2000 and 2016, who were hospitalized for ACS and underwent CABG. Of them, 527 (40%) patients were with and 780 (60%) were without DM.

resultsCompared with the non-diabetic group, the diabetic group of patients comprised more women and had more comorbidities such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, renal impairment, peripheral vascular disease and prior ischemic heart disease. Overall 30-day mortality rate was similar between DM and non-DM patients (4.2% vs. 4%, p = 0.976). Ten-year mortality rate was higher in DM compared with non-diabetic patients (26.6% vs. 17.7%, log-rank p < 0.001), and higher in the subgroup of insulin-treated patients compared to non-insulin treated patients (31.5% vs. 25.6%, log-rank p = 0.019). Multivariable analysis showed that DM increased the mortality hazard by 1.61-fold, and insulin treatment among the diabetic patients increased the mortality hazard by 1.57-fold.

conclusionsWhile type 2 DM did not influence the in-hospital mortality hazard, we showed that the presence of DM among patients with ACS referred to CABG, is a powerful risk factor for long-term mortality, especially when insulin was included in the diabetic treatment strategy.
