Influence of visual-functional mismatch on coronary flow profiles after percutaneous coronary intervention: a propensity score-matched analysis.

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
The aims of this study are to clarify whether discrepancies between angiographic and fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurements (visual-functional mismatch) influence coronary flow profiles after percutaneous coronary intervention. While current guidelines FFR-guided revascularization, clinical practice most commonly relies on angiographic evaluation, which may under- or over-estimate the functional relevance of the lesion. Our retrospective analysis involved 274 vessels from 264 patients with stable angina pectoris who underwent FFR, index of microvascular resistance, and coronary flow reserve (CFR) measurements before and after PCI. Visual-functional concordance and discordance (reverse mismatch) were defined as angiographic stenosis > 50% with FFR ≤ 0.80 and angiographic stenosis ≤ 50% with FFR ≤ 0.80, respectively. Propensity score-matched cohort included 132 lesions (66 lesions: concordant findings, 66 lesions: reverse mismatch). The change in coronary flow profiles after PCI was assessed in terms of FFR, CFR, index of microvascular resistance (IMR), and mean transit time (T
