Review in Journal of interventional cardiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06273293 (Postprocedural Contrast Mediated FFR Plus Intracoronary Infusion of Nitroglycerin in Multivessel Patients), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.

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.

Abstract

Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is routinely used to determine lesion severity prior to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, there is an increasing recognition that FFR may also be useful following PCI to identify mechanisms leading to restenosis and the need for repeat revascularization. Post-PCI FFR is associated with the presence and severity of stent under-expansion and may help identify peri-stent-related complications. FFR pullback may also unmask other functionally significant lesions within the target vessel that were not appreciable on angiography. Recent studies have confirmed the prognostic utility of performing routine post-PCI FFR and suggest possible interventional targets that would improve stent durability. In this review, we detail the theoretical basis underlying post-PCI FFR, provide practical tips to facilitate measurement, and discuss the growing evidence supporting its use.
