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

backgroundSaphenous vein graft percutaneous coronary intervention (SVG PCI) following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is commonly used procedure for patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Emerging evidence suggests gender-based differences influencing SVG intervention clinical outcomes. This study aimed to analyze the impact of gender and various patient characteristics, procedural intricacies, anatomical considerations, and perioperative factors as potential risk determinants for SVG failure post-CABG surgery.

methodsA retrospective, single-center, analysis was conducted on post-CABG patients at Barzilai Medical Center Ashkelon from 2010 to 2023 to assess gender-based differences in SVG PCI incidence.

resultsOf the 72 ACS patients undergoing SVG PCI, a notably higher incidence was observed in men. However, graft failure occurred earlier in women compared to men (13.50 ± 6.59 SD years vs. 22.13 ± 5.66 SD years). Women exhibited a 1.2 times higher likelihood of earlier PCI than men (OR 1.24 CI 1.077 to 1.487, p = 0.0066) after adjusting for age, smoking, diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia.

conclusionGender differences in the incidence of SVG PCI and graft failure denote the need for gender-tailored follow-up and early intervention to optimize graft patency and potentially enhance long-term clinical outcomes. Integrating gender-specific approaches into post-CABG management could significantly improve patient care and prognosis.
