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

objectivePatient and device selection are important for the success of carotid artery stenting (CAS). We hypothesize that distal protection filter (DPF) design characteristics that minimize blood flow resistance and maximize capture efficiency are associated with the absence of transient ischemic attack (TIA), stroke and neurologic-related death after 30 days.

methodsRecords from 208 patients were reviewed retrospectively. Filter design characteristics were quantified previously in our laboratory. The association between risk factors and design characteristics with 30-day outcome was quantified using univariate analysis.

resultsThe 30-day all-cause stroke and death rate was 8.7% (asymptomatic: 7.7%, symptomatic: 10.6%). Five DPFs were used in the study: Accunet (41.3%), Angioguard (33.2%), FilterWire (24%), Emboshield (1%), and Spider (.5%). Diabetes (P = .04) and prior carotid endarterectomy (CEA, P = .03) were associated with adverse outcome. Prior stroke (P = .01) and prior CEA (P = .04) were significant for peri-procedural stroke. Design characteristics such as capture efficiency were associated with favorable outcomes.

conclusionsPatients with prior CEA or stroke are more likely to have unfavorable CAS outcomes after 30 days. Filters with high capture efficiency may yield the best clinical results. Analysis of the effect of design characteristics on CAS outcome should aid the design of future devices.
