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 angiography is a common procedure performed by the cardiologist to evaluate coronary atherosclerotic disease (CAD) and the result is utilized by both cardiologists and cardiac surgeons to perform catheter and surgical interventions on the coronary artery. In addition to evaluating CAD, other useful investigative modalities such as left ventriculography and aortography can be performed at the time of coronary angiography. Despite its limitations and the emergence of newer investigative modalities like coronary computed tomography angiography, intravascular ultrasound scan, and magnetic resonance coronary angiography, conventional coronary angiography has remained the gold standard for the evaluation of coronary artery disease. Hence, it remains an investigative modality that every member of the cardiothoracic team performing coronary artery bypass grafting must learn how to interpret.
