Impact of Obesity on Early In-Hospital Outcomes after Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Surgery in Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Propensity Score Matching Analysis.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Recent advances in perioperative care have considerably improved outcomes after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. However, obesity can increase postoperative complication rates and can lead to increased morbidity and mortality. Between June 2011 and October 2019, a total of 1375 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) underwent cardiac surgery and were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into 2 groups: non-obese (body mass index (BMI) < 30 kg/m2, n = 967) and obese (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2, n = 379). Underweight patients (n = 29) were excluded from the analysis. To compare the unequal patient groups, a propensity score-based matching (PSM) was applied (non-obese group (n = 372) vs. obese group (n = 372)). The mean age of the mentioned groups was 67 ± 10 (non-obese group) vs. 66 ± 10 (obese group) years, p = 0.724. All-cause in-hospital mortality did not significantly differ between the groups before PSM (p = 0.566) and after PSM (p = 0.780). The median length of ICU (p = 0.306 before PSM and p = 0.538 after PSM) and hospital stay (p = 0.795 before PSM and p = 0.131 after PSM) was not significantly higher in the obese group compared with the non-obese group. No significant differences regarding further postoperative parameters were observed between the unadjusted and the adjusted group. Obesity does not predict increased all-cause in-hospital mortality in patients undergoing CABG procedure. Therefore, CABG is a safe procedure for overweight patients.
