Early and Long-Term Outcomes after On-Pump and Off-Pump Coronary-Artery Bypass Grafting in Patients with Severe Left Ventricular Dysfunction and a Giant Left Ventricle.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular development and disease, 2022. 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
introductionNo previous studies comparing the outcomes between off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (off-pump CABG, OPCAB) and on-pump CABG (ONCAB) have been performed in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction (LVD) and a giant left ventricle. We aimed to investigate whether such patients could benefit from OPCAB.
methodsFrom January 2011 to January 2021, a total of 98 patients with severe LVD and a giant left ventricle underwent isolated CABG (ONCAB 46, OPCAB 52) in Wuhan Union Hospital. The clinical data were collected retrospectively and propensity score matching was performed to adjust baseline characteristics.
resultsAfter propensity matching, the two groups were comparable in baseline variables. The OPCAB group had a higher rate of incomplete revascularization than the ONCAB group (25.0% vs. 9.1%;
conclusionsFor patients with severe LVD and a giant left ventricle, OPCAB reduced early postoperative complications while sacrificing long-term quality of life compared to those having ONCAB.
