Relationship between coronary artery calcium score and bleeding events after percutaneous coronary intervention in chronic coronary syndrome.
Observational study in Heart and vessels, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The relationship between coronary artery calcium (CAC) and bleeding events after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) is not well established. This study aimed to examine the association between CAC scores and clinical outcomes after PCI in patients with CCS. This retrospective observational study included 295 consecutive patients who underwent multidetector computer tomography and were scheduled for their first elective PCI. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the CAC scores (low: ≤ 400 or high: > 400). The bleeding risk was evaluated using the Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk (ARC-HBR) criteria. The primary clinical outcome was a major bleeding event within 1 year after PCI, defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) 3 or 5. The high CAC score group had a higher proportion of patients meeting the ARC-HBR criteria than the low CAC score group (52.7% vs. 31.3%, p < 0.001). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the incidence of major bleeding events was higher in the high CAC score group as compared to the low CAC score group (p < 0.001). Furthermore, multivariate Cox regression anal ysis revealed that a high CAC score was an independent determinant of major bleeding events during the first year after PCI. A high CAC score is significantly associated with the incidence of major bleeding events after PCI in CCS patients.
