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

backgroundCardiac surgery that uses cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a complex and important procedure, but few studies have examined the quality of life in patients by population stratification.

objectiveTo explore the heterogeneity in quality of life and examine its perioperative risk factors in patients undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery, thereby providing a basis for formulating personalized interventions.

methodsThe clinical data of patients who underwent on-pump cardiac surgery between January 2019 and December 2023 were retrospectively collected. From July 2024 to December 2024, postoperative telephone follow-up was conducted and the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) was assessed using the 12-Item Short Form Health Survey Version 2 (SF-12v2) scores. Then, latent profile analysis (LPA) identified characteristic categories of HRQoL. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression were employed to determine perioperative factors associated with HRQoL.

resultsA total of 427 patients were categorized into low (L group, 19.9%), moderate (M group, 54.1%) and high (H group, 26.0%) HRQoL subgroups, with significant intergroup differences (P < 0.01). Logistic regression analysis revealed that perioperative hypertension, ejection fraction (EF) and duration of mechanical ventilation were significantly associated with HRQoL (P < 0.01) among groups. Compared to H group, preoperative atrial fibrillation was significant in M group (P < 0.01), while postoperative myocardial infarction was significant in L group (P < 0.01).

conclusionThe quality of life is heterogeneous among patients after on-pump cardiac surgery. Perioperative cardiovascular and respiratory factors are closely associated with unfavourable outcomes. Targeted monitoring and management of these modifiable factors may therefore improve HRQoL in high-risk populations. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRY: The study has been registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2400093824).
