Effects of colloid-based (hydroxyethylstarch 6% 130/0.42, gelafundin 4%) and crystalloid-based volume regimes in cardiac surgery: a retrospective analysis.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 restriction of hydroxyethylstarch (HES) necessitated changes in volume management in cardiac surgery, increasing the use of gelatin (GELA) and crystalloid (CRYS) mono strategies. Methods: This retrospective study evaluated the effects of changed volume replacement management to a GELA or CRYS mono therapy on mortality, acute kidney injury (AKI), blood loss, and transfusion in cardiac surgery patients with at least one coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) at a university hospital. Three groups (HES n=938, GELA n=397, CRYS n=205) were derived from 1,540 patients with complete data sets. Data were analyzed by multiple regression models. Results: Patients had similar risk profiles, comorbidities, and preoperative routine diagnostics prior to surgery. No difference was observed in mortality and AKI. HES treated patients showed highest blood loss, followed by GELA while CRYS patients had the lowest (P<0.0001). Patients in the HES group had highest transfusion of packed red blood cells (PRBCs) and platelet concentrates (PCs), followed by GELA, whereas CRYS had the lowest (P<0.0001). Fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusion, administration of fibrinogen, and prothrombin complex concentrates (PCCs) were highest in HES group. CRYS showed the shortest time of mechanical ventilation (P<0.0001) and left the intensive care unit (ICU) significantly earlier (P<0.0001). Multivariable regression analysis found that colloid volume significantly predicted hospital mortality and renal replacement therapy (RRT), but not AKI. Conclusions: Administration of crystalloids without any colloid showed no differences in mortality or AKI, but less blood loss and transfusion. Colloids should be considered critically and further studies should investigate effects of GELA in cardiac surgery.
