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

objectivesOur aim was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of biodegradable polymer everolimus-eluting stents (BP-EES) compared with durable polymer everolimus-eluting stents (DP-EES) in midterm.

backgroundThere are few data about midterm clinical outcomes of BP-EES compared with DP-EES. METHODS AND

resultsBetween January 2016 and December 2017, 395 consecutive patients were treated with BP-EES and 391 consecutive patients were treated with DP-EES in Nagoya Heart Center. The primary endpoint was a 3-year cumulative incidence of target lesion failure (TLF) defined as cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction (MI), and clinical indicated target lesion revascularization (TLR). Moreover, clinical indicated target vessel revascularization (TVR) and definite stent thrombosis (ST) were also evaluated as the secondary endpoints. After propensity score matching, 327 patients were selected in each group. At 3 years, the cumulative incidence of TLF was 4.5% in the BP-EES group versus 6.5% in DP-EES (adjusted HR 0.67 (95% CI 0.33-1.30), log-rank

conclusionsThere were no significant differences of TLF between BP-EES and DP-EES within 3 years. In this study, BP-EES seems to prevent definite ST and be safer than DP-EES in midterm.
