Nutritional supplement drink reduces inflammation and postoperative depression in patients after off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery.
Trial report in World journal of cardiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundCoronary artery bypass grafting is a surgical treatment for ischemic heart disease. Although development in surgical technique and improvement of perioperative management reduced the postoperative complications, some patients still delayed in progress of postoperative rehabilitation. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of daily intake of an herbal medicine-containing drink for rehabilitation after surgery in patients with ischemic heart disease.
aimTo investigate the effect of taking an herbal medicine-containing, commercially available drink for postoperative rehabilitation in those patients.
methodsPatients who underwent isolated off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) surgery were divided into two groups depend on the timing of the admission to the hospital: the Yunker (YKR) group, that consumed one bottle of a caffeine-free nutritional supplement drink on a daily basis and the control group (CTL) that underwent regular rehabilitation.
resultsA total of 229 patients (CTL = 130, YKR = 99) were enrolled. No significant differences were observed in the baseline characteristics between the two groups. The YKR group had a significantly increased number of daily steps postoperatively (
conclusionOur results demonstrated that the daily intake of an herbal medicine-containing drink after OPCAB surgery may have beneficial effects on cardiac rehabilitation by reducing inflammation markers and depression.
