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

purposeTo experimentally investigate a new homogenously paclitaxel/resveratrol-coated balloon catheter in terms of transport of the coating to the treated tissue and local effects including histology and functional tests.

methodsAdherence of the coating to the balloon was explored by in vitro simulation of its passage to the lesion. Paclitaxel and resveratrol transfer to the vessel wall was investigated in porcine coronary and peripheral arteries. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) was used for direct microscopic visualization of paclitaxel in arterial tissue. Inhibition of neointimal proliferation and tolerance of complete coating and resveratrol-only coating was investigated in pigs 4 weeks after treatment, and the effect of resveratrol on inflammation and healing after 3 and 7 days.

resultsDrug loss on the way to the lesion was < 10% of dose, while 65 ± 13% was detected at the site of balloon inflation. After treatment similar proportions of drug were detected in coronary and peripheral arteries, i.e., 7.4 ± 4.6% of dose or 125 ± 74 ng/mg tissue. MALDI showed circumferential deposition. Inhibition of neointimal proliferation by paclitaxel/resveratrol coating was significant (p = 0.001) whereas resveratrol-only coating did not inhibit neointimal proliferation. During the first week after treatment of peripheral arteries with resveratrol-only balloons, we observed nominally less inflammation and fibrin deposition along with a significant macrophage reduction and more pronounced re-endothelialization. No safety issues emerged including left ventricular ejection fraction for detection of potential distal embolization after high-dose treatment of coronary arteries.

conclusionsPaclitaxel/resveratrol-coated balloons were effective and safe in animal studies. Beyond acting as excipient resveratrol may contribute to vascular healing.
