Combination Tools for Calcium Modification from RASER to Orbitalshock.
Review in Interventional cardiology (London, England), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Coronary artery calcification is frequently encountered during percutaneous coronary intervention and its presence is associated with a higher risk of stent under-expansion which has been associated with long-term risk of stent failure. There are several different calcium modification strategies available, whether they be balloon-based devices (cutting/scoring and intravascular lithotripsy) or atherectomy devices (orbital atherectomy, rotational atherectomy, excimer laser coronary atherectomy) that are established for the modification of coronary calcification. Each strategy applies a different mechanism of action for calcium modulation and consequently the potential to combine modifying tools may offer synergistic advantages over device monotherapy. This article will focus on reviewing the evidence for the use of multiple calcium modification techniques and examine whether there really is any such synergistic effect of combining these tools.
