Stent Fracture and Perforation During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for In-Stent Restenosis.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 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
backgroundStent fracture is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We present a case of type IV stent fracture during PCI of recurrent in-stent restenosis (ISR) of the right coronary artery. CASE SUMMARY: A 64-year-old man with prior coronary artery bypass grafting and recurrent ISR in the right coronary artery underwent PCI involving cutting balloon angioplasty and brachytherapy. Aggressive balloon dilation to achieve optimal results led to a type IV stent fracture with Ellis type III perforation. Prolonged balloon tamponade failed, and a covered stent was successfully deployed to seal the perforation. DISCUSSION: This case highlights the risk of mechanical complications during the management of ISR and the importance of immediate intervention using covered stents in coronary perforations. We discussed case-relevant risk factors and management options for stent fracture and coronary perforation. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: Operators must remain vigilant for rare complications like stent fractures and perforation in PCI of ISR.
