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

Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is associated with a high risk of mortality and morbidity; thus, assessment of surgery quality is necessary. In this perspective, we will focus on the structure, process, and outcomes measured as quality assessment. A set of 21 evidence-based structure, process, and outcome measures were selected as National Quality Forum. Of these, the Society of Thoracic Surgeons ultimately chose 11 individual quality measures grouped them into four domains used to assess the quality of CABGs. These four domains consisted of perioperative medical care, operative care, risk-adjusted operative mortality and postoperative risk-adjusted major morbidity. These measures have been useful as quality improvement tools in assessing the quality of CABG surgery.
