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: This study aims to evaluate the effect of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting on neurological causes of mortality. Methods: Between November 1 Results: No-touch aorta coronary artery bypass grafting was performed 958 (83%) patients and single side-biting clamp was used in 196 (17%) patients. Two-hundred seventy-one (23.5%) patients were in an emergent condition, and 63 (5.5%) patients had a history of stroke and/or transient ischemic attack preoperatively. Concomitant carotid endarterectomy was performed in 50 (4.3%) patients. Postoperatively, 139 (12%) patients had atrial fibrillation and five (0.4%) patients had stroke. Seven patients (0.6%) died in the hospital and one (0.08%) patient died in the postoperative 30-day period. One-year, three-year, and five-year survival rates were 98.7%, 97.4%, and 96.5%, respectively. Conclusion: Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting is associated with a low incidence of perioperative stroke. Avoidance of aortic manipulation in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting may reduce the risk of adverse neurological effects of cardiopulmonary bypass. We attribute the long-term survival to shorter lengths of stay in the intensive care unit and hospital and less need for blood products after surgery.
