Therapeutic effect of carotid artery stenting versus endarterectomy for patients with high-risk carotid stenosis.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental medicine, 2014. 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
objectiveTo investigate therapeutic effect of carotid artery stenting versus endarterectomy for patients with high-risk carotid stenosis.
methodsA total of 130 carotid stenosis patients at high-risk of stroke were randomly divided into stenting group and endarterectomy group, including 65 patients in each group. The patients in the endarterectomy group underwent endarterectomy and those in the stenting group received carotid artery stenting for treatment.
resultsAfter operation, carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), plague areas and carotid artery resistance indexes in both groups decreased significantly, and the carotid artery peak blood flow velocities increased significantly and had significant differences with that before operation (P < 0.05). After operation, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) values in two groups all significantly decreased, and intragroup and intergroup differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Postoperative three months of followed-up found that the mortality rate in stenting group was 1.5% and that in the endarterectomy group was 9.2%; the mortality rate in the stenting group was significantly lower than the endarterectomy group (P < 0.05).
conclusionCompared with carotid endarterectomy, application of carotid artery stenting can effectively promote patency of blood flow in the carotid artery, and exertion of its effect is related to lowering lipid and lowering inflammatory factor expression.
