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

backgroundMeRes100™ (Meril Life Sciences Pvt. Ltd., Vapi, India) is a novel sirolimus-eluting bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BRS). The purpose of this sub-study of MeRes-1 trial is to evaluate the systemic release of sirolimus from MeRes100 BRS implanted for the treatment of

methodsThe MeRes-1 is a prospective, multicenter, first-in-human trial of sirolimus-eluting MeRes100 BRS. The pharmacokinetic sub-study was conducted at two Indian sites in 10 patients who were implanted with the MeRes100 BRS loaded with sirolimus at a dose of 1.25 µg/mm

resultsA total of 12 scaffolds were implanted in 10 patients. Non-compartmental analysis demonstrated time to reach peak concentration of sirolimus between 0.5 h to 3 h after scaffold implantation. The peak concentration (C

conclusionsThe MeRes-1 pharmacokinetic sub-study confirmed that MeRes100 BRS is safe and tolerable at limited systemic exposure of sirolimus.
