Trends in antithrombotic therapy and clinical outcomes for percutaneous coronary intervention in Japan following the 2020 JCS guideline focused update: findings from the SAKURA PCI2 Antithrombotic Registry.

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
In April 2020, the Japanese Circulation Society updated guidelines recommending shortened dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for patients at Japanese Version of the High Bleeding Risk (J-HBR), but the impact remains unclear. We conducted a prospective multicenter registry (SAKURA PCI2 Antithrombotic Registry) starting June 2020 (n = 1136), enrolling patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Planned DAPT duration, defined as short if less than 3 months, was based on patient background post-PCI and physicians' discretion. Planned short DAPT was used in 55.2% of patients, with a similar incidence of J-HBR (68.3% vs. 66.6%, p = 0.55) and a shorter actual DAPT duration (97 vs. 229 days, p < 0.001) compared with Planned non-short DAPT. Primary endpoints, major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) including all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, and stroke, and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 3 or 5 bleeding (BARC-3/5), occurred similarly across groups (MACCE: 6.5% vs. 7.3%, p = 0.66; BARC-3/5: 3.7% vs. 2.2%, p = 0.14). Independent predictors of MACCE included age ≥ 75, Clinical Frailty Scale ≥ 4, and hemoglobin < 11. Age ≥ 75, severe chronic kidney disease, hemoglobin < 11, and platelets < 100,000 were linked to BARC-3/5. Among BARC 3/5 patients, 41.2% experienced bleeding after switching to single antiplatelet therapy. Planned short DAPT was implemented in 55.2% of patients, showing comparable thrombotic and bleeding outcomes to non-short DAPT.
