Indications, Management, and Short- and Medium-Term Outcomes of Patients with Chronic Coronary Occlusion Treated with Percutaneous Revascularization-A Single-Center Study.

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
The diagnosis of chronic total occlusion (CTO), characterized by the complete obstruction of a coronary artery for at least three months, remains challenging and can be entirely asymptomatic. Since the indications for performing a recanalization procedure for CTO do not originate from randomized controlled trials, this study aimed to assess the indications, management, and procedural outcomes of patients undergoing percutaneous revascularization (PCI) for a CTO, ensuring that the population was as uniform as possible regarding technologies and methodological approaches. Forty-one consecutive patients who underwent PCI for CTO recanalization were enrolled from January 2021 to 2024. Additional outcomes included mortality, major adverse cardiovascular events, and the presence of residual cardiac symptoms, with a median follow-up of 449 days and an interquartile range of 230-643 days. Our real-life study confirmed that PCI for CTO has a high success rate and a low incidence of major complications.
