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

objectivesTo investigate the predictive value of CT-derived fractional flow reserve (FFR

methodsPatients undergoing CABG with both pre- and post-operative coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) were retrospectively included. Preoperative CCTA studies were used to evaluate anatomical and FFR

resultsA total of 270 anastomoses were identified in 88 enrolled patients. Forty-one anastomoses from 30 patients exhibited occlusion during a follow-up of 15.3 months after CABG. The occluded group had significantly increased prevalence of non-severe DS (58.5% vs. 40.2%; p = 0.023) and non-significant FFR

conclusionsFFR KEY POINTS: • FFR
