Prognostic Value of Quantitative Flow Ratio Combined with SYNTAX Scores I/II in Multivessel Coronary Artery Disease: A Small-Sample, Single-Center Study.
Article in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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: A fractional flow reserve (FFR)-fixed-SYNTAX score could decrease the number of high-risk patients. This study explored the prognostic value of non-invasive quantitative flow ratio (QFR)-fixed-SYNTAX I/II scores in multivessel disease patients. Methods: This was a single-center, small-sample, observational study. Multivessel coronary disease patients were enrolled and finished a 1-year follow-up. SYNTAX scores I/II and functional SYNTAX scores I/II based on QFR (cut-off value of 0.85) were calculated for all patients. The composite occurrence of cardiac deaths, any myocardial infarction, or ischemia-driven revascularization were analyzed using a different score system. Results: A total of 160 patients were stratified into risk groups based on a different scoring system. FSS (functional SYNTAX score) and FSSII (functional SYNTAX score II) reduce the radio of high-risk major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), transforming the patients from high-risk to medium- and low-risk. Furthermore, FSSII (hazard ratio (HR): 1.069, 95% CI: 1.025-1.115, Conclusions: FSS or FSSII could decrease the number of high-risk patients compared to SYNTAX score (SS) and FSS. SYNTAX II score (SSII) and FSSII showed a better predictive ability than other scoring systems for under-risk stratification.
