Outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusion according to baseline renal function.
Article in Clinical research in cardiology : official journal of the German Cardiac Society, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) adversely affects outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease. Data on the impact of renal impairment on prognosis of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) are scarce.
methodsA total of 2002 patients undergoing CTO PCI were stratified according to baseline renal function (group 1: estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] ≥ 90 ml/min/1.73 m
resultsAll-cause mortality increased with decreasing renal function (group 1: 5.0%, group 2: 9.5%, group 3: 26.4%, and group 4: 38.7%, log rank p < 0.001). Continuous eGFR values were significantly related with all-cause mortality (adjusted HR 0.98, 95% CI 0.98-0.99, p < 0.001). Procedural failure was associated with all-cause mortality both in patients with an eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m
conclusionsAlthough renal impairment is associated with all-cause mortality in patients undergoing CTO PCI, successful CTO recanalization is related to improved survival irrespective of renal function.
