Impact of plaque and luminal morphology in balloon angioplasty of the femoropopliteal artery: an intravascular ultrasound analysis.
Article in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 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
Objective: To assess the effect of plaque and luminal morphologies in balloon angioplasty of femoropopliteal lesions using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). Methods: This retrospective, observational study analyzed 836 cross-sectional images using IVUS, from 35 femoropopliteal arteries of patients who underwent endovascular treatment between September 2020 and February 2022. Pre- and post-balloon angioplasty images were matched per 5 mm. Post-balloon angioplasty images were grouped into successful ( Results: In univariate analyses, the predictive factors for unsuccessful balloon angioplasty were vascular remodeling ( Conclusion: High plaque burden and luminal eccentricity were risk factors for failed femoropopliteal artery balloon angioplasty. Additionally, eccentric guidewire routes predicted severe dissection.
