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

backgroundIn a previous study, we found that titrating clopidogrel maintenance doses (MDs) according to vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) monitoring minimised the rate of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events (MACCE) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) without increasing bleeding in patients with high on-treatment platelet reaction to clopidogrel. This study aimed to investigate whether VASP-guided clopidogrel MD could reduce thromboembolism and bleeding in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients requiring anticoagulation and scheduled for PCI.

methodsAF patients scheduled for PCI were recruited between July 2014 and July 2016. These patients were allocated into VASP-guided (n = 250) and control (n = 253) groups depending on the clopidogrel MD profile. In the VASP-guided group, clopidogrel MD was titrated by the platelet reactivity index (PRI), whereas in the control group, clopidogrel MD was fixed at 75 mg per day. The primary endpoint was MACCE and secondary endpoints were thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) major and minor bleeding 1 year after PCI.

resultsFive hundred and three patients were included in the present study, with 1-year data available for 95.6% patients. The average CHA

conclusionsIn AF patients requiring anticoagulation and scheduled for PCI, VASP-guided antiplatelet therapy reduced major cardiovascular and cerebral adverse events, accompanied by increased minor bleeding events.

trial registrationThe present study was retrospectively registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry, A Primary Registry of the International Clinical Trial Registry Platform, World Health Organisation (Registration no: ChiCTR-IOR-17013854 ). The registered date was December 11, 2117.
