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

Background Patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are older with greater medical comorbidities and anatomical complexity than ever before, resulting in an increased frequency of nonemergent high-risk PCI (HR-PCI). We thus sought to evaluate the temporal trends in performance of HR-PCI and utilization of mechanical circulatory support in the largest integrated healthcare system in the United States. Methods and Results A cohort of high-risk adult patients that underwent nonemergent PCI in the Veterans Affairs Healthcare System between January 2008 and June 2018 were identified by objective clinical, hemodynamic, and anatomic criteria. Temporal trends in the performance of HR-PCI, utilization of mechanical circulatory support, and site-level variation were assessed. Of 111 548 patients assessed during the study period, 554 met 3 high-risk criteria whereas 4414 met at least 2 criteria for HR-PCI. There was a significant linear increase in the proportion of interventions that met 3 (
