Non-pharmacological interventions to support coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) patient recovery following discharge: protocol for a scoping review.
Article in BMJ open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundIn Canada, approximately 15 000 people undergo coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) each year. However, 9.5% of these patients are urgently readmitted to hospital within 30 days of surgery. Postoperative interventions following discharge play an important role in reducing readmissions and improving CABG patient outcomes. Therefore, it is important to determine effective interventions available to enhance CABG patient recovery following postoperative discharge.
objectivesOur scoping review aims to identify non-pharmacological interventions available to support recovery of patients who are discharged after CABG in the community setting.
methodsThe methodological framework described by Arksey and O'Malley will be applied to this review. Our search strategy will include electronic databases (Medline, Embase, Cochrane Library and CINAHL), and studies will be screened and reviewed by two independent reviewers. Studies looking at non-pharmacological interventions targeting patients who are discharged after CABG will be included. Preliminary searches were conducted March 2022 and following abstract screening, full-text screening was completed May 2023. Data extraction is planned to begin September 2023 with an expected finish date of October 2023. The study is expected to be completed by January 2024. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This scoping review will retrieve and analyse previously published studies in which informed consent was obtained by primary investigators. Therefore, no ethical review or approval will be required. This scoping review aims to enumerate available non-pharmacological interventions to support recovery of patients who are discharged after CABG and identify gaps in postoperative recovery after discharge to support the development of innovative and targeted interventions. On completion of this review, we will ensure broad dissemination of our findings through peer-reviewed, open-access journals, conference presentations and hold meetings to engage stakeholders, including clinicians, policy makers and others.
