A simple and rapid method for identification of lesions at high risk for the no-reflow phenomenon immediately before elective coronary stent implantation.

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
We aimed to design a rapid and reliable method to identify coronary lesions at high risk for the no-reflow phenomenon before elective coronary stent implantation using integrated backscatter intravascular ultrasound (IB-IVUS). The no-reflow phenomenon occurring during elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) worsens patient prognosis, regardless of whether the phenomenon is transient or persistent. We retrospectively studied 353 coronary lesions to identify factors potentially promoting the no-reflow phenomenon, including lesion location and severity. We also performed component analysis by two- and three-dimensional IB-IVUS before elective stent implantation. The cutoff values of the true lipid volume and estimated lipid volume (lipid area at the minimal lumen diameter site × total stent length) for the no-reflow phenomenon were determined by receiver operating curve analysis. Type C lesions, regardless of location and a thrombolysis in myocardial flow grade of 0, were risk factors for the no-reflow phenomenon during PCI. The estimated lipid volume was significantly correlated with the true lipid volume (R
