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 treatment of calcific coronary lesions is still a major interventional issue in haemodynamics laboratories. The prevalence of the disease is even increasing, considering the general ageing of the population undergoing coronarography, as well as the often associated comorbidities. In recent years, new devices have been developed that allow both better identification and also better treatment of these lesions. The aim of this review is to summarize both imaging modalities and dedicated techniques and materials, thus providing a kind of compendium for the treatment approach.
