In-Hospital Outcomes and Temporal Trends of Surgical Versus Intravascular Ultrasound-Guided Endovascular Interventions for Femoropopliteal Disease.
Article in Journal of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Peripheral artery disease is a global health concern, with femoropopliteal disease being a common manifestation. Recent advancements in endovascular interventions (EVI), guided by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), have introduced promising treatment options. This study aims to compare in-hospital outcomes and trends of surgical versus IVUS-guided EVI for femoropopliteal disease. Methods: The National Inpatient Sample database (2016-2021) was analyzed. Procedures were identified using the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification codes, and the Cochran-Armitage test was used to assess temporal trends. Propensity score matching balanced baseline characteristics between the surgical (weighted N = 6700) and IVUS-guided EVI (weighted N = 6700) groups. Multivariable regression analysis adjusting for matched covariates was conducted to compare outcomes. Results: Multivariable logistic regression revealed that in-hospital mortality was lower in the IVUS-guided EVI group (1.6%) compared to the surgical group (3.5%) (OR, 0.386; 95% CI, 0.216-0.692). IVUS-guided EVI also had significantly fewer periprocedural complications (20.6% vs 24.7%; OR, 0.767; 95% CI, 0.636-0.924), including lower rates of bleeding, shock, infections, wound disruption, and respiratory failure. Multivariable linear regression showed that the length of stay was shorter for the IVUS-guided EVI group (β = -1.7 days; 95% CI, -2.2 to -1.1). No statistically significant differences were observed in inflation-adjusted costs, cardiac complications, major amputation, stroke, or renal failure. Conclusions: Intravascular ultrasound-guided EVI for femoropopliteal disease are associated with better in-hospital outcomes compared to surgical revascularization, including lower in-hospital mortality, periprocedural complications, and a shorter length of stay. However, future prospective studies are needed to validate these results.
