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

introductionWhether duration of chronic total occlusion (CTO) affects lesion and procedural characteristics remains largely unknown.

aimTo investigate whether CTO duration influences lesion characteristics and revascularization success. MATERIAL AND

methodsEuroCTO Registry data on patients who had CTO percutaneous coronary intervention between January 2015 and April 2017 were analyzed. Three groups were created based on occlusion age: 3 to 6 months (

resultsPatients with greater CTO duration were older (63.0 (56.0-70.0); 63.0 (56.0-71.0); 66.0 (59.0-73.0) years respectively;

conclusionsCoronary artery CTO duration is associated with greater extent of calcification, lesion length, development of collateral circulation and, most importantly, with lower procedural success.
