Reduction of bleeding complications on puncture site after percutaneous coronary intervention using a 6.5-French sheathless guiding catheter.
Article in Heart and vessels, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundReducing complications at the puncture site after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is important. The diameter of a 6.5-French (Fr) sheathless guiding catheter (GC) is smaller by approximately 2-Fr compared to a 6-Fr conventional sheath. In the present study, we investigated the post-PCI puncture site complications of a transradial approach in each gender while using a 6.5-Fr sheathless GC. METHODS AND
resultsOur study consisted of 332 patients who underwent transradial coronary intervention (TRI) between August 2017 and July 2019. We classified the patients into either the 6.5-Fr sheathless GC (Asahi, Intecc, Aichi, Japan) Group (Sheathless group: n = 182 males, 58 females) or the 6-Fr sheathed GC Group (Sheathed group: n = 150 males, 36 females). We determined the complications at the puncture site: oozing, subcutaneous hemorrhage, formation of hematoma, pseudoaneurysms, and peripheral neuropathy. The body mass index of the patients was greater in the sheathless GC group compared to the sheathed GC group (24.5 ± 3.5 kg/m
conclusionThe use of the 6.5-Fr sheathless GC system in a transradial approach reduced the complications at the puncture site in female patients. The 6.5-Fr sheathless GC system may be a safe option for them compared to the conventional sheath system.
