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

objectivesCurrent evidence does not support superiority of one cardioplegia type over another, but stems from low-risk populations. Therefore, we compared outcomes of multimorbid, high-risk infective endocarditis (IE) patients receiving Custodiol

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 553 patients (mean EuroScore II 22.7 ± 21.1) who underwent surgery for IE between 2009 and 2023 and received either cold crystalloid (Custodiol

resultsIn the overall cohort, patients receiving Custodiol

conclusionsIn high-risk endocarditis patients warm blood cardioplegia may be superior to cold crystalloid, although differences did not reach statistical significance. However, propensity matching may not have accounted for all differences, which warrants further discussion and investigation.
