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

backgroundStatin therapy has been proven to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. The objective of our retrospective study was to investigate the relationship between preoperative chronic administration of statins to postoperative 2-month heart transplantation complications.

methodsA total number of 38 heart transplantation recipients from the Cardiovascular and Transplant Emergency Institute of Târgu Mureș between May 2014 and January 2021 were included in our study.

resultsIn logistic regression, we found a statistical significance between statin treatment and the presence of postoperative complications of any cause (OR: 0.06, 95% CI: 0.008-0.56;

conclusionsChronic previous administration of statins represented a protective factor to the development of 2-month postoperative complications of any cause in heart transplant receipts.
