A five-minute drainage assessment prevents reexploration for bleeding.
Article in JTCVS open, 2024. 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
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of the five-minute drainage assessment (FMDA) in preventing reexploration for bleeding following cardiovascular surgery. Methods: This retrospective review included 1280 patients who underwent cardiovascular surgery between January 2017 and August 2021. Patients were divided into control (n = 695) and FMDA (n = 585) groups. The FMDA involved estimating the bleeding volume from 1 drainage tube every 5 minutes during sternal closure. Reexploration rates, postoperative bleeding volumes, and clinical outcomes were compared between the 2 groups. Results: The FMDA group had a significantly lower rate of reexploration for bleeding than the control group (2.2% vs 4.3%; Conclusions: Implementation of the FMDA was associated with a significantly lower rate of reexploration for bleeding compared to the control group. The FMDA provides a simple and reproducible approach that can be readily adopted in surgical practice.
