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

Background: Patients with comorbid coronary artery disease and valvular heart disease usually undergo coronary artery bypass grafting alongside valve replacement or ring repair surgeries. Following these procedures, they typically receive a combination of anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy, which notably heightens their bleeding risk. However, Current scoring systems provide limited predictive capability. Methods: A total of 500 adult patients treated with anticoagulation plus antiplatelet therapy after cardiac surgery were randomly divided into the training set and the validation set at a ratio of 7:3. Predictive factors were identified using univariate logistic regression, LASSO regression and multivariable analysis. Various models were developed, validated and evaluated by using methods including ROC curves, calibration curves, the Hosmer-Lemeshow test, net reclassification improvement (NRI), integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) index, decision curve analysis (DCA) and clinical impact curves (CIC). Results: Mod2 showed the best performance (AUC of validation set = 0.863) which consists of 8 independent predictive factors (gender, age > 65 years, diabetes, anemia, atrial fibrillation, cardiopulmonary bypass time, intraoperative bleeding and postoperative drainage), with a significantly higher AUC compared to Mod1 (only preoperative factors) and Mod3 (the HAS-BLED scoring model). NRI and IDI analyses further confirmed the superior predictive ability of Mod2 (NRI < 0.05, IDI < 0.05). Both DCA and CIC indicated that Mod2 exhibited good clinical applicability. Conclusion: This research established and validated a nomogram model incorporating eight predictive factors to evaluate the bleeding risk in patients who receive anticoagulation combined with antiplatelet therapy following cardiac surgery. The model holds significant potential for clinical applications in bleeding risk assessment, decision-making and personalized treatment strategies.
