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

aimTo investigate the characteristics of coronary artery bifurcation type (parallel or perpendicular type) using three-dimensional (3D) optical coherence tomography (OCT), and determine the feasibility, reproducibility, assessment time and correlation with bifurcation angles measured by 3D quantitative coronary angiography (QCA). METHODS AND

resultsWe evaluated 60 lesions at the coronary bifurcation that were treated by main vessel (MV) stenting with kissing balloon inflation (KBI) under OCT/optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI) guidance. Inter- and intra-observer agreement regarding the assessment of 3D bifurcation types were 0.88 and 0.94, respectively. The assessment times of 3D-OCT bifurcation type with OCT and OFDI were within about 30 seconds. 3D-OCT bifurcation types showed the greatest correlation with the distal bifurcation angle assessed by 3D-QCA among the three bifurcation angles (distal bifurcation angle, proximal bifurcation angle and main vessel angle), and the optimal cut-off distal bifurcation angle to predict a perpendicular type bifurcation, as determined by ROC analysis, was 51.0° (AUC 0.773, sensitivity 0.80, specificity 0.67). Based on this cut-off value for the distal bifurcation angle (51°), the diagnostic accuracy for perpendicular type bifurcation in cases with a BA ≥ 51° (n = 34) was 70.6% (24/34) and that of the parallel type bifurcation in cases of BA < 51° (n = 26) was 76.9% (20/26).

conclusionPerforming 3D-OCT for assessment of coronary artery bifurcation type is feasible and simple, and can be done in a short time with high reproducibility.
