Conduits' Biology Regulates the Outcomes of Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting.
Review in JACC. Basic to translational science, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is the gold standard for coronary surgical revascularization. Retrospective, prospective, and meta-analysis studies looking into long-term outcomes of using different conduits have pointed to the superiority of arterial grafts over veins and have placed the internal mammary artery as the standard conduit of choice for CABG. The superiority of the internal mammary artery over other conduits could be attributable to its intrinsic characteristics; however, little is known regarding the features that render some conduits atherosclerosis-prone and others atherosclerosis-resistant. Here, an overview is provided of the available data on the most commonly used conduits in CABG (internal mammary artery, saphenous vein, radial artery, gastroepiploic artery), highlighting the differences in their cellular biology, mechanical, biochemical, and vasoconstrictive properties. This information should help in furthering our understanding of the clinical outcomes observed for each of these conduits.
