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

Bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BRS) represent a revolutionary concept in interventional cardiology. After initial enthusiasm, recent real world registries, including patients with increasing lesion complexity, reported not trivial rates of scaffold thrombosis (ScT). The importance of correct patients selection as well as technical aspects during BRS implantation procedures has been highlighted in several studies suggesting that the high rate of ScT might be related to uncorrected patients/lesions selection together with underutilization of intracoronary imaging guidance leading to suboptimal BRS implantation. The high-resolution power together with the lack of shadowing observed beyond polymer struts makes optical coherence tomography (OCT) the optimal imaging technique to guide BRS implantation and identifies eventually scaffolds failures.
