Calcified Nodules in Non-Culprit Lesions with Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients.

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: Calcified nodules (CN) have been linked to unfavorable clinical outcomes. However, there is a lack of systematic studies on non-culprit lesions with CN in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). This study aims to investigate the frequency, distribution, predictors, and outcomes of CN in non-culprit lesions among ACS patients. Methods: We included 376 ACS patients who received successful stent placement in their culprit lesions. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) was performed to evaluate non-culprit lesions in left main arteries and all three coronary arteries (CA). CN was defined as accumulations of small nodular calcium deposits exhibiting a convex shape protruding into the lumen. Results: CNs was identified in 16.9% (121 of 712) per artery and 26.9% (101 of 376) per patient. They were predominantly located at the mid portion of the right coronary artery (26.3%) and the bifurcation site (59.9%). Patients with CN were older (63.57 Conclusions: CN in non-culprit lesions with ACS patients was prevalent and caused fewer adverse clinical outcomes.
