Angioscopic and optical coherence tomographic evaluation of neointimal coverage: 9 months after expandable polyterafluoroethylene covered stent implantation.
Article in Heart and vessels, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
An expandable polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) covered stent is generally employed to seal coronary artery perforation. The frequency of ePTFE covered stent use is relatively low; thus, only a handful of studies have reported neointimal coverage and endothelialization inside the deployed ePTFE and clinical time course after ePTFE implantation. This case report presents a 78-year-old man treated with an ePTFE covered stent when he suffered from coronary artery perforation after the implantation of two everolimus eluting stents in the left anterior descending artery. Follow-up coronary angiography 9 months after ePTFE covered stent implantation depicted favorable stent patency. Optical coherence tomography showed thin and uneven stent strut coverage at the culprit. Angioscopy also depicted partial white-coated coverage and stent strut exposure. The outcome of this case suggested that long-term dual antiplatelet therapy should be prescribed for preventing thrombosis after ePTFE covered stent implantation.
