Impact of vasopressin use for postoperative atrial fibrillation in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.
Observational study in Nagoya journal of medical science, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Postoperative atrial fibrillation complicates 15-40% of cardiac surgery cases and is associated with various adverse health outcomes including high mortality. Although vasopressin administration decreases postoperative atrial fibrillation in on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting, its use in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting has not been investigated. Therefore, we evaluated the effect of vasopressin use in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. For this retrospective, observational study at a single-center community hospital in Yokkaichi, Japan, 298 patients who had undergone elective or emergency off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting between April 2015 and March 2021 were enrolled. Participants were divided into two groups: vasopressin and non-vasopressin groups. The outcomes in both groups were analyzed after propensity score matching, which revealed 40 patients in each matched group. Patients with chronic atrial fibrillation and those who were converted from off-pump to on-pump surgery were excluded. The primary outcome was postoperative atrial fibrillation occurrence within 4 days post-surgery. Secondary outcomes were 30-day mortality, intensive care unit and hospital stays, and postoperative complications (acute kidney injury, stroke, acute myocardial infarction, and respiratory complications). Although 11 patients (27.5%) in the vasopressin group were affected by postoperative atrial fibrillation when compared to 18 (45%) patients in the non-vasopressin groups, the difference was not significant (
