The role of pericoronary fat thickness in prediction of long-term outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusions.

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: Pericoronary fat thickness (PFT) is a well-established marker crucial for evaluating the extent and severity of coronary artery disease (CAD). While its role in CAD is widely acknowledged, a considerable gap exists in understanding the prognostic implications of PFT after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), specifically for coronary chronic total occlusions (CTO). Aim: This study investigated the relationship between PFT and prognostic outcomes in patients undergoing PCI for CTO. Material and methods: A retrospective study analyzed data from 415 patients who had undergone coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and coronary angiography (CAG). PFT measurements were taken, and patients were categorized into normal, PCI (non-CTO), and CTO-PCI groups. Prognostic implications within the CTO-PCI group were evaluated based on survival status. Results: PFT measurements varied significantly among groups. The CTO-PCI group had a 13.9% mortality rate over a median follow-up of 16.6 ±10.3 months. Higher average PFT values were found in the non-survival group ( Conclusions: PFT is a significant inflammatory marker and a promising prognostic indicator following PCI for CTO. Integrating PFT into risk prediction models may enhance prognostic accuracy and aid in timely clinical interventions.
