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

objectivesCurrent thin-strut 2

methodsMEDLINE and Scopus were queried from their inception to May 2024 to identify studies comparing outcomes between ultrathin and current thin-strut 2

resultsA total of 17 RCTs (n=22141) with a mean follow-up of 34 months were included. The risk of TLF was significantly lowered in the ultrathin DES group in comparison to thin-strut DES. A significant decrease was also noted in rates of TVF, CD-TLR and CD-TVR in the ultrathin DES vs thin-strut DES group.

conclusionThe results of our analysis demonstrate a significantly reduced risk of TLF in the ultrathin DES group in comparison with thin-strut DES. Ultrathin DES was also associated with a significantly decreased risk of TVF, CD-TLR and CD-TVR.
