Clinical Outcomes of Polytetrafluoroethylene-Covered Stents for Coronary Artery Perforation in Elderly Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Interventions.
Article in Acta Cardiologica Sinica, 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
backgroundCoronary artery perforation (CAP) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with increased mortality. Polytetrafluoroethylene covered stents (CS) are an effective approach to treat CAP, but data regarding elderly patients requiring CS implantation for CAP are limited. The aim of this study is to report clinical data for elderly CAP patients undergoing CS implantation during PCI.
methodsNineteen consecutive elderly patients (≥ 65 years) undergoing CS implantation due to PCI-induced CAP in a tertiary referral center from July 2003 to April 2016 were retrospectively examined.
resultsThere were 13 men and six women, with a mean age of 75.3 ± 5.6 years (range: 65-86 years). Perforation grade was Ellis type II in five patients (26.3%), and Ellis type III in 14 patients (73.7%). Cardiac tamponade developed in six patients (31.6%), and intra-aortic balloon pumping was needed in four patients (21.1%). The overall success rate for CS implantation rate was 94.7%. The overall in-hospital mortality rate was 15.8%; the in-hospital myocardial infarction rate was 63.2%. Among 16 survival-to-discharge cases, dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) was prescribed in 14 cases (87.5%) for a mean duration of 14 months. Overall, there were five angiogram- proven CS failures among 18 patients receiving successful CS implantation. The 1, 2 and 4 years of actuarial freedom from the CS failure were 78%, 65%, and 43% in the angiogram follow-up patients.
conclusionsCS implantation for CAP is feasible and effective in elderly patients, while CS failure remains a major concern that encourages regular angiographic follow-up in these case.
