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

The present study assesses the clinical outcomes after left main coronary stenting, using clinical evaluation, angiography, and Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR). A prospective observational study was conducted on 72 patients undergoing left main coronary artery (LMCA) stenting, transthoracic echocardiography, coronary angiography, and percutaneous coronary intervention were done and FFR was recorded. At the end of 6 months, follow up check angiography, FFR study were performed. The stent was placed from LMCA to left anterior descending artery (LAD) artery among 45.83% of patients and 9.72% had from LMCA to Left circumflex artery. The mortality rate was 8.33%. The fractional flow reserve was 0.81 on an average ranging from 0.58 to 0.90. Relatively low incidence of major cardiac event was noted among patients with single vessel disease and ostial LMCA disease.
