A New Era for Rotational Atherectomy: An Australian Perspective.
Article in Clinical Medicine Insights. Cardiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundRotational atherectomy (RA) has been used in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for 30 years. With advances in technology, this observational study looks at how rates of RA have changed over the past decade in Australia in relation to PCI and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) rates.
methodsRetrospective analysis of RA, PCI, and CABG rates per Australian state from Australian Government Department of Human Services' data on Medicare items from 2007 to 2017 was carried out.
resultsThere were 149 RA procedures in 2007, increasing to 452 in 2017. Rotational atherectomy accounted for 0.67% of PCI procedures in 2007, increasing to 1.48% in 2018 (+0.81%, 95% confidence interval [CI] = [0.64%-0.91%];
conclusionsFrom 2007 to 2017, rates of RA trebled in Australia. This is despite stable rates of PCI and a fall in rates of CABG. There are several clinical explanations for this trend.
