1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Deep sternal wound infection (DSWI) is a feared complication after cardiac surgery. The impact of sex-related differences on wound infection prevalence is poorly understood. Our aim was to evaluate the effect of sex on short-term outcomes in patients with DSWI after open-heart surgery. The study was a retrospective cohort study. A total of 217 patients with DSWI were identified and retrospectively analyzed using our institutional database. Patients were divided into two groups: males (
