Long-Term Outcomes after Rotational Atherectomy for Calcified Chronic Total Occlusion versus Nonchronic Total Occlusion Coronary Lesions.
Article in Journal of interventional cardiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: The role of rotational atherectomy (RA) in contemporary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is expanding to include certain chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesions. However, the long-term outcome of RA in CTOs is still unclear. Objective: To investigate in-hospital and long-term outcomes after RA for CTO compared to non-CTO calcified lesions. Moreover, this report evaluates the role of the elective RA approach in calcified CTOs. Methods and Results: This study enrolled 812 patients (869 lesions; CTO, Conclusion: Compared to non-CTO, RA for CTO can be performed with a high procedural success rate and comparable in-hospital outcomes. Apart from higher cardiac mortality in the CTO group, the long-term outcomes are comparable in both groups. Elective RA is a feasible and beneficial approach to be used in CTO intervention.
