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

Aims: To identify ischaemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) patients with different phenotypes for evaluating their outcomes and heterogeneous treatment effects (HTEs) of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods and results: We applied a machine learning-based consensus, K-Medoids clustering analysis to the Surgical Treatment for Ischemic Heart Failure trial. We compared the risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality among different phenotypes. The survival benefits of CABG compared with medical therapy alone were assessed in the identified phenotypes for evaluating HTEs. The consensus clustering analysis identified three distinct clinical phenotypes among 1212 ICM patients based on 19 variables. Specifically, phenotype 1 ( Conclusion: We identified three phenotypes with distinct outcomes and HTEs among ICM patients. Patients with lower LVEF, higher NYHA grades, and diabetes had the poorest clinical outcomes but were more likely to derive greater survival benefits from CABG.
