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

Drug-eluting bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) is a revolutionary treatment option for obstructive coronary artery disease in percutaneous coronary intervention. It restores blood flow to the myocardium but unlike permanent metallic stent, BVS dissolves in the body within 2 years. This allows the coronary vessel to regain its normal function and motion. The clinical efficacy and safety of BVS in the first-in-human trials have been reported with low major adverse cardiac event rates observed at short- and long-term follow-up. The incidence of BVS scaffold thrombosis (ST) in these studies was 0 %. There is limited data on the incidence of BVS ST in the real world. We report 2 cases of subacute ST involving BVS in our real-world practice and discuss on the possible mechanisms of these thrombotic episodes (with insights from intracoronary imaging studies).
