Shorter- versus Longer-duration Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus Undergoing Drug-eluting Stents Implantation: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

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
backgroundPatients with diabetes mellitus (DM) have a higher risk of thromboembolic events; however, the optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) remains unclear. The goal of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of various DAPT durations in patients with DM undergoing drug-eluting stent implantation.
methodsWe conducted a literature search for randomized controlled trials (RCTs). We searched databases including EMBASE, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Scopus up to June 2016. Investigators extracted data independently, including outcomes, characteristics, and study quality. A random-effect model was used to pool odds ratios (OR s) with 95% confidence intervals (CI s) of the clinical outcomes.
resultsSix RCTs totaling 6040 patients with DM were included in the study. Shorter-duration DAPT resulted in an increased rate of stent thrombosis (ST) (OR, 1.83, 95% CI: 1.03-3.26, P = 0.04), but did not increase the risk of myocardial infarction (OR, 1.33, 95% CI: 0.71-2.47, P = 0.37), stroke (OR, 0.96, 95% CI: 0.52-1.77, P = 0.90), target vessel revascularization (OR, 1.19, 95% CI: 0.46-3.07, P = 0.71), all-cause death (OR: 0.72, 95% CI: 0.48-1.09, P = 0.12), or cardiac death (OR, 0.82, 95% CI: 0.49-1.36, P = 0.44) significantly. Shorter-duration DAPT was associated with a decreased risk of major bleeding (OR, 0.60, 95% CI: 0.38-0.94, P = 0.02).
conclusionIn patients with DM, longer-duration DAPT had a lower risk of ST, but was associated with an increased bleeding risk.
