Sex-related differences in long-term mortality after coronary artery bypass graft surgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

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
Background: This meta-analysis assessed the sex-related differences in long-term mortality (≥7 years) after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Methods: We searched the databases Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science for studies reporting sex-specific differences in mortality following CABG. The search was not restricted to time or publication status. The primary endpoint of interest was long-term mortality (≥7 year or longer). Results: A total of 1289 studies resulted from literature search. A total of 19 studies with 277,224 patients (60,858 women and 216,369 men) were included. The mean age was higher in women than men (66.5 vs. 63.1 years). Our analysis demonstrated that female sex was associated with higher long-term mortality (≥7 years) following CABG (odds ratio 1.17; 95% confidence interval 1.05-1.30; p < 0.01). Conclusions: Our results suggest that women had higher long-term mortality following CABG compared with men. It is the largest study to date of sex-specific differences in long-term mortality (≥7 years).
