Prolonged QRS independently predicts long-term all-cause mortality in patients with narrow QRS complex undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (9-year follow-up results).

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
aimWe investigated the association of intermediate QRS prolongation with the long-term all-cause mortality in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery patients with a narrow QRS complex in the preoperative electrocardiography (ECG). MATERIAL AND
methodsA total of 221 consecutive patients with narrow QRS (< 120 ms) sinus rhythm who underwent CABG surgery were included in the study. The patients were followed up for 9.2 years postoperatively in terms of mortality outcomes.
resultsFollow-up data were obtained from 211 (173 men, 38 women) of 221 patients. Death occurred in 57 of them. We examined patients in the two groups according to survival outcomes. In multivariate COX regression analysis EuroSCORE (OR = 1.342, 95% CI: 1.167-1.544,
conclusionsIn CABG patients with a narrow QRS complex, preoperative intermediate prolonged QRS is an independent predictor of all-cause mortality in long-term follow-up.
