Association between ex vivo thrombogenicity and ischemic outcome in off-pump coronary surgery.
Article in Annals of medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundIncreased thrombogenicity prohibits favorable ischemic outcomes in coronary artery disease. This study investigated the association between increased maximal amplitude (MA) on thromboelastography (TEG), which reflects high platelet-fibrin clot strength, and 1-year major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients who underwent isolated multi-vessel off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery (OPCAB). PATIENTS AND
methodsData from 657 patients were retrospectively analyzed. TEG was performed post-anesthesia induction. MACE was defined as cardiovascular death, repeat revascularization, myocardial infarction, stroke, or rehospitalization due to heart failure. Patients were analyzed by tertiles of MA (mm). Logistic regression analyzed the association between 1-year MACE and MA.
resultsThe incidence of MACE increased with MA tertiles (1
conclusionsIncreased thrombogenicity, reflected by elevated MA values, was linearly associated with the occurrence of 1-year MACE, highlighting the need for TEG screening and more aggressive, individualized perioperative anticoagulation management in selected patients with increased MA requiring OPCAB.
