Resolution of late sirolimus-eluting stent thrombosis after tirofiban treatment.
Article in Heart and vessels, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
A 40-year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital with acute chest pain. A sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) had been deployed to the circumflex artery (Cx) 3 years before. Now, inferior ST-segment elevations were observed and coronary angiography revealed stent thrombosis with distal TIMI 3 grade flow in the Cx. Tirofiban infusion was administered and the control angiography 2 days later revealed complete resolution of the thrombus. Stent thrombosis is a rare but usually poor prognostic event, frequently associated with large myocardial infarction (MI) or death. Very late drug-eluting stent (DES) thrombosis remains a major problem of interventional cardiology due to its high morbidity and mortality. We conclude that tirofiban may be an interesting candidate drug for treatment of very late stent thrombosis.
