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

backgroundThe durable polymers (DP) used in first-generation drug-eluting stents (DESs) were associated with long-term cardiovascular events, and thus biodegradable polymer DESs (BP-DESs) and second-generation DP-DESs were designed to overcome this problem. In this study, we compared angiographic follow-up and long-term clinical outcomes between patients who received BP-DESs or second-generation DP-DESs.

methodsWe enrolled 436 patients with single coronary lesions who received a second-generation DP-DES or BP-DES between June 2009 and October 2012. All patients received follow-up angiography when new clinical events developed or at 9 months after index stenting. All participants received follow-up for 5 years.

resultsThere were no significant differences in patient and lesion characteristics between the two groups. The 9-month angiographic follow-up showed a lower net gain in the second-generation DP-DES group (2.19 mm vs. 2.41 mm, p = 0.040), but a similar binary restenosis rate between the two groups (5.4% vs. 8.7%, p = 0.276). During the 5-year follow-up period, no significant differences were observed between the two groups in major adverse cardiac events (MACEs), cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), target vessel revascularization (TVR), all revascularization, stent thrombosis (ST), or MACE-free survival.

conclusionsNo significant differences were observed in cardiovascular death, nonfatal MI, TVR, all revascularization, ST, or MACE-free survival between the patients undergoing single coronary artery stenting with BP-DESs and second-generation DP-DESs.
