Risk factors analysis of hyperbilirubinemia after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting: a retrospective observational study.
Observational study in Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, 2021. 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
backgroundHyperbilirubinemia is a common complication after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB), but the incidence and the risk factors are unclear. This study aimed to analyze the incidence and risk factors of postoperative hyperbilirubinemia in patients undergoing OPCAB.
methodsFrom December 2016 to March 2019, a total of 416 consecutive patients undergoing OPCAB were enrolled in this single-center retrospective study. Patients were divided into the normal serum total bilirubin group and the hyperbilirubinemia group based on the serum total bilirubin levels. Perioperative variables between the two groups were compared by univariate logistic regression analysis. Then, multivariate binary logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the independent risk factors of developing hyperbilirubinemia in patients underwent OPCAB. P < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant.
resultsThirty two of 416 (7.7%) patients developed postoperative hyperbilirubinemia. Univariate regression analysis showed significant differences in gender (73.96% vs. 93.75%, P = 0.012), preoperative total bilirubin levels (11.92 ± 4.52 vs. 18.28 ± 7.57, P < 0.001), perioperative IABP implantation (22.66% vs. 43.75%, P = 0.008), perioperative blood transfusion (37.50% vs. 56.25%, P = 0.037) between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that elevated preoperative serum total bilirubin levels (OR = 1.225, 95% CI 1.145-1.310, P < 0.001), perioperative blood transfusion (OR = 4.488, 95% CI 1.876-10.737, P = 0.001) and perioperative IABP implantation (OR = 4.016, 95% CI 1.709-9.439, P = 0.001) were independent risk factors for hyperbilirubinemia after OPCAB.
conclusionsHyperbilirubinemia is also a common complication after OPCAB. Elevated preoperative serum total bilirubin levels, perioperative blood transfusion, and perioperative IABP implantation were independent risk factors for patients developing hyperbilirubinemia after OPCAB. Further studies need to be conducted to confirm the risk factors of hyperbilirubinemia after OPCAB procedure.
