Trends in Reoperative Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery for Older Adults in the United States, 1998 to 2017.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Background The likelihood of undergoing reoperative coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) is important for older patients who are considering first-time CABG. Trends in the reoperative CABG for these patients are unknown. Methods and Results We used the Medicare fee-for-service inpatient claims data of adults undergoing isolated first-time CABG between 1998 and 2017. The primary outcome was time to first reoperative CABG within 5 years of discharge from the index surgery, treating death as a competing risk. We fitted a Cox regression to model the likelihood of reoperative CABG as a function of patient baseline characteristics. There were 1 666 875 unique patients undergoing first-time isolated CABG and surviving to hospital discharge. The median (interquartile range) age of patients did not change significantly over time (from 74 [69-78] in 1998 to 73 [69-78] in 2017); the proportion of women decreased from 34.8% to 26.1%. The 5-year rate of reoperative CABG declined from 0.77% (95% CI, 0.72%-0.82%) in 1998 to 0.23% (95% CI, 0.19%-0.28%) in 2013. The annual proportional decline in the 5-year rate of reoperative CABG overall was 6.6% (95% CI, 6.0%-7.1%) nationwide, which did not differ across subgroups, except the non-white non-black race group that had an annual decline of 8.5% (95% CI, 6.2%-10.7%). Conclusions Over a recent 20-year period, the Medicare fee-for-service patients experienced a significant decline in the rate of reoperative CABG. In this cohort of older adults, the rate of declining differed across demographic subgroups.
