Operator-patient sex discordance and periprocedural outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (from the ORPKI Polish National Registry).
Article in Postepy w kardiologii interwencyjnej = Advances in interventional cardiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Introduction: A recent study suggested that sex discordance between surgeons and patients negatively affects the outcomes of patients undergoing common surgical procedures. Aim: We sought to assess whether such an impact exists for periprocedural outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Material and methods: From 2014 to 2020, data on 581,744 patients undergoing single-stage coronary angiography and PCI from 154 centers were collected. Patients were divided into four groups based on the patient and operator sex. Operator-patient sex discordance was defined as the procedure done by a male operator on a female patient or by a female operator on a male patient. Results: Of 581,744 patients treated by 34 female and 782 male operators, 194,691 patients were sex discordant with their operator (female operator with male patient 12,479; male operator with female patient 182,212) while 387,053 were sex concordant (female operator with female patient 6,068; male operator with male patient 380,985). Among female patients, no difference in the risk of periprocedural complications, including death (0.65% vs. 0.82%; Conclusions: No detrimental effect of operator-patient sex discordance on periprocedural outcomes was confirmed in all-comer patients undergoing PCI. Some of the observed differences in outcomes were primarily related to the differences in baseline risk profile.
