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: Surgical site infection (SSI) in patients with frailty undergoing myocardial revascularization is a major clinical challenge, and there is a gap in the literature related to this topic. Objective: This study aimed to identify perioperative variables associated with SSI in patients with frailty and prefrailty undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting within 30 days of the procedure. Methods: This retrospective observational study included 467 patients with frailty or prefrailty aged 60 years and older who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting in 6 Brazilian centers between January 2018 and December 2024. Frailty was defined using the Fried criteria. SSI was defined as a wound with exposed tissue with positive culture requiring antibiotic treatment. Univariate and multivariate analyses were carried out. Results: The rate of SSI was 5.6% (26/467). The New York Heart Association classification ( Conclusions: The CCI and the use of CPB were independently associated with SSI.
