Myocardial Perfusion Scan Study before and after On-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Surgery - A Single-Center Study.

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
Aim: Ischemic cardiac disease is the most common adult heart disease. The primary aim of the study was to analyze the myocardial perfusion status of the patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft using sestamibi scan and assess the improvement in perfusion status of the myocardium after the surgery. Materials and Methods: This study was a descriptive study consisting of a single group of patients undergoing elective surgery for coronary artery disease. The patients underwent myocardial perfusion scan before surgery. Another myocardial perfusion scan was performed 3 months after the surgery. The change in myocardial perfusion status was analyzed. Results: Totally, 49 patients were initially included in this study. Seven patients lost their follow-up. Among the 17 patients who had severely reduced tracer uptake preoperatively, 3 (7.1%) had a good outcome, while 14 (33.3%) had a poor outcome, which was statistically significant ( Conclusion: Surgical revascularization improves perfusion in a selective group of patients.
