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

Previous studies suggested possible discordant quantitative measurements between different IVUS catheters and/or systems. The purpose of this study was to assess compatibility of two different IVUS catheters and consoles for quantitative measurements of coronary arteries. (1). In vitro study: IVUS imaging was performed in a concentric cylindrical phantom with 6 sections of known, cross-sectional diameter ranging from 3.0 to 8.0 mm. The lumen diameter (LD) and lumen cross-sectional area (LA) were measured and compared. To compare between 2 different IVUS consoles, IVUS images were obtained using a single IVUS catheter (catheter 1) connected to 2 different IVUS consoles (console 1 and 2). To compare between 2 different IVUS catheters, IVUS imaging was obtained using 2 different IVUS catheters (catheter 1 and 2) connected to a single IVUS console (console 2). (2). In vivo study: IVUS imaging was performed in 40 stented coronary arterial segments from 40 patients. The maximal stent diameter (Max SD), minimal stent diameter (minSD), and stent area (SA) were measured at both distal and proximal stent edges and compared between the two IVUS consoles (console 1 and 2) connected to a single IVUS catheter (catheter 1) (n = 20). IVUS imaging was also performed to compare between catheter 1 and 2 connected to IVUS console 2 (n = 20). Both in vitro and in vivo studies showed good correlation between the two IVUS consoles as well as two IVUS catheters. In conclusion, two IVUS catheters and consoles provide comparable IVUS measures both in vitro and in vivo.
