Provisional Stenting for the Treatment of Bifurcation Lesions: In Vitro Insights.

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
Provisional stenting is considered the gold standard approach for most bifurcation lesions, but the benefit of routine side branch (SB) strut dilatation has not been fully elucidated. A benchtop model was used to determine the benefits of routine side branch (SB) dilatation techniques on strut apposition, acute thrombogenicity, and flow disruption. Three different provisional bifurcation techniques were compared: no SB dilatation "keep it open" method (KIO), sequential balloon dilatation (SBD), and kissing balloon inflation (KBI). Stents were deployed in a silicon bifurcation model and perfused with blood at a flow rate of 200 ml/min for 60 min. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) pullbacks were obtained before and after flow perfusion to conduct strut analysis and acute thrombus measurement respectively. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models were created using OCT pullbacks and simulated based on experimental conditions to analyze flow disruption. The strut analysis showed that KBI had the lowest percentage of floating (10.6 ± 2.3%) (p = 0.0004) and malapposed (41.2 ± 8.5%) struts (p = 0.59), followed by SBD and then KIO. This correlated to KBI having the lowest amount of thrombus formed at the SB, followed by SBD, with KIO being the most thrombogenic (KBI: 0.84 ± 0.22mm
