Minimally invasive surgical coronary artery bypass in women.
Article in Annals of cardiothoracic surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has emerged as a viable alternative to conventional sternotomy CABG in select patients requiring coronary revascularization. Specific techniques vary, but minimally invasive CABG (i.e., MIDCAB) usually involves revascularization of the left anterior descending (LAD) artery with the left internal mammary artery (LIMA). Minimally invasive CABG can be performed without cardiopulmonary bypass through a small anterior thoracotomy incision with robotic assistance. Use of minimally invasive CABG may offer specific benefits for women requiring revascularization, particularly given that female gender is an independent risk factor for inferior outcomes following CABG. Here we describe how to perform robot-assisted minimally invasive CABG, with a focus on technical modifications aimed at improving outcomes in women.
