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

Objectives: Data on outcomes of patients undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (isolated CABG) versus CABG and concomitant left heart valve (LHV-CABG) surgery are conflicting, especially in extracorporeal life support (ECLS) settings. We compared characteristics, in-hospital outcomes, and overall survival between patients undergoing isolated-CABG and concomitant LHV-CABG requiring postcardiotomy ECLS from a large multicenter study. Methods: This retrospective, multicenter (34 centers), observational study included adults requiring postcardiotomy ECLS between 2000 and 2020. Clinical characteristics and outcomes were compared between patients who underwent isolated CABG with those who underwent LHV-CABG. Association between type of surgery and in-hospital survival was investigated through mixed-Cox proportional hazards models. Results: This study included 639 patients comprising 58.8% (n = 376) isolated CABG and 41.1% (n = 263) LHV-CABG, including 46.7% (n = 123) aortic, 38.8% (n = 102) mitral, and 14.5% (n = 38) combined aortic-mitral valve procedures. The LHV-CABG patients were older ( Conclusions: LHV-CABG surgery, compared with isolated CABG, was associated with higher in-hospital mortality in patients requiring ECLS, whereas no midterm postdischarge survival differences could be detected. Early identification of patients in need for ECLS following LHV-CABG may improve outcomes.
