The Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry (CAAR) in Iran: Registry Protocol and Results of the Pilot Study.
Article in Medical journal of the Islamic Republic of Iran, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: The current registry system aims to design a database that can be used for future research as a tool to produce and update new protocols for the diagnosis, treatment, management, and prevention of heart diseases. Methods: In this hospital-based registry system, established on 27 July 2021, all the adult patients (age ≥18 years old) with signs and symptoms of cardiac diseases under coronary angiography or angioplasty in the cardiac ward of Imam Hossein Hospital of Tehran, Iran were recruited and followed-up until 30 days after discharge in the pilot phase. All data were collected using a researcher-made checklist from face-to-face interviews with patients and their medical records. The data were registered electronically in web-based software. Quality Control (QC) is conducted monthly by the QC team to ensure the documented data's quality. Results: among 1265 patients under coronary angiography or angioplasty over a year, 97% (n=1198) of them were Iranian, and 991 (73.33%) patients lived in the country's capital, Tehran. About 55% (n=706) of patients were male. The mean age of the total patients was 60.48 ± 12.01 years. 764 (60.39%) patients were diagnosed with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Of all CAD patients, 32.72% (n=250) and 1.18% (n=9) were premature and very early CAD, respectively. During one year, 22.54% (n=279) and 7.02% (n=87) of patients were under PCI and CABG, respectively. Conclusion: Since CVDs, especially CADs, are one of the most common and priority diseases in Iran's health system, establishing a coronary angiography and angioplasty registration system is an opportunity to study the epidemiological and clinical process of CVDs in the shape of an accurate registration system.
