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

In order to find the most suitable therapy concept for patients with severe stenosis of the carotid bifurcation (>70%), knowledge on the currently available treatment methods is necessary. In addition to carotid endarterectomy, medication therapy and stent angioplasty are also available. The outcome after stent angioplasty must be considered under the aspects of rapid technical development and increasing experience. Results of studies are still only of limited value with respect to the development of protection systems, flexible guiding catheters, low profile and more visible stents and balloons as well as using thrombocyte aggregation.
