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 drug-eluting stent was a significant stride forward in the development of enhanced therapeutic therapy for coronary intervention, with three generations of increased advancement. VSTENT is a newly developed stent manufactured in Vietnam that aims to provide coronary artery patients with a safe, effective, and cost-efficient option. The purpose of this trial was to determine the efficacy and safety of a new bioresorbable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent called VSTENT. Methods: This is a prospective, cohort, multicenter research in 5 centers of Vietnam. A prespecified subgroup received intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) or optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging. We determined procedure success and complications during index hospitalization. We monitored all participants for a year. Six-month and 12-month rates of major cardiovascular events were reported. All patients had coronary angiography after 6 months to detect late lumen loss (LLL). Prespecified patients also had IVUS or OCT performed. Results: The rate of device success was 100% (95% CI: 98.3-100%; P<0.001). Major cardiovascular events were 4.7% (95% CI: 1.9-9.4%; P<0.001). The LLL over quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) was 0.08±0.19 mm (95% CI: 0.05-0.10; P<0.001) in the in-stent segment and 0.07±0.31 mm (95% CI: 0.03-0.11; P=0.002) in 5 mm within the two ends of the stent segment. The LLL recorded by IVUS and OCT at 6 months was 0.12±0.35 mm (95% CI: 0.01-0.22; P=0.028) and 0.15±0.24 mm (95% CI: 0.02-0.28; P=0.024), respectively. Conclusions: This study's device success rates were perfect. IVUS and OCT findings on LLL were favorable at 6-month follow-up. One-year follow-up showed low in-stent restenosis (ISR) and target lesion revascularization (TLR) rates, reflecting few significant cardiovascular events. VSTENT's safety and efficacy make it a promising percutaneous intervention option in developing nations.
