Antiplatelet therapies in combination for the treatment of patients with stable and unstable coronary artery disease.
Review in Journal of thrombosis and thrombolysis, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
There have been several recent trials of antiplatelet therapy that are relevant to the management of patients with coronary artery disease. The CURE, PCI-CURE, ESPRIT, TACTICS-TIMI 18, and TARGET studies were all major randomized clinical trials that have advanced the field of cardiovascular medicine tremendously. Additionally, the CREDO trial will soon be presented. It is evident from these trials that clopidogrel therapy improves upon the results seen with aspirin alone in patients with acute coronary syndromes. This is true even of patients undergoing an invasive approach, which is clearly the preferred strategy in moderate and high risk patients with acute coronary syndromes. It is imperative that this invasive approach be coupled with intravenous blockade of the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor. The benefits of clopidogrel and glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors appear complementary. Questions remain about the optimal duration of clopidogrel treatment after elective stenting and of the particular choice of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor both in acute and elective settings.
