Long-term clinical and angiographic outcome of T-and protrusion technique with ultrathin strut drug eluting stents.

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
objectivesData about coronary bifurcations treated with ultrathin strut drug-eluting stents (DES) using T-and-protrusion (TAP) technique is limited.
methodsIn this study, a total of 84 consecutive patients, who underwent bifurcation percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with TAP technique using Orsiro® DES (Biotronik, Berlin, Germany), were included. All pre- and post-procedural data, as well as 1- and 2-year follow-up angiograms, were analyzed. Primary endpoints were procedural success and target lesion failure (TLF); secondary endpoints were all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) during follow-up.
resultsProcedural success was achieved in 100% of cases. TLF rate was higher in patients presented with acute coronary syndrome compared to the ones with chronic coronary syndrome (19% vs. 5%
conclusionsCoronary bifurcations treated with ultrathin strut DES showed good short-term results and were associated with acceptable cardiovascular mortality. However, in these long-term patients, the rate of MACCE and non-cardiovascular death were rather high.
