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

Intravascular imaging for acute coronary syndrome is recommended in the guidelines; however, the actual rate of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who successfully undergo optical coherence tomography (OCT)-guided primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is unclear. This study aimed to determine the feasibility of OCT-guided primary PCI and identify the patient population that would benefit most from OCT guidance in STEMI. The ATLAS-OCT trial was a prospective, single-arm, all-comers study conducted at 16 institutions. The primary endpoint was the feasibility of OCT guidance for primary PCI, defined as successful image acquisition (vessel's circumferential or > 270° visualization along > 70% of the lesion's length, as evaluated by an independent core laboratory). A total of 632 patients (mean age: 68.4 years; 80.2% male) were enrolled in the study. OCT-guided PCI was performed in 503 patients, whereas OCT guidance was avoided in 129 patients for patient's condition. Successful image acquisition was achieved in all but seven patients who underwent OCT. The primary endpoint was achieved in 78.5% (496/632) of patients. No procedural complications were associated with OCT. Patients with left main disease (adjusted odds ratio, 4.1; 95% confidence interval, 1.2-14.7; p = 0.024), estimated glomerular filtration rate (mL/min/1.73 m
