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

Background: This study aimed to explore the factors influencing the drug-eluting stent (DES) selection criteria of cardiologists in association with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) volumes and to determine whether they value further DES improvements and modifications. Methods: The survey was conducted on a group of cardiologist operators from April 10 to 30, 2023. Results: The analysis included 126 operators who answered the questions. Of these, low-, intermediate-, and high-volume operators accounted for 49 (38.9%), 47 (37.3%), and 30 (23.8%), respectively. Overall, Xience™ everolimus-eluting stent (CoCr-EES) was most frequently used, with > 70% of cardiologists using it in > 20% of their PCI practice. The percentage of selection by low-, intermediate-, and high-volume operators among the DESs used demonstrated no difference, except for dual-therapy sirolimus-eluting and CD34 Conclusions: The current study results indicate that patient background, DES performance, and product specifications were not criteria for DES selection in cardiologists with different PCI volumes in routine PCI.
