IVUS Guided Ostial Lesion Preparation With Sequential Cutting Balloon Inflations and Stent Placement-The ORCAS Technique.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2025. 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
The ORCAS technique highlights the potential value of continuous intracoronary imaging during key procedural steps such as plaque preparation and ostial stent implantation. Real-time IVUS guidance may support more precise assessment and execution, possibly improving procedural accuracy and consistency in complex aorto-ostial lesions, particularly in heavily calcified coronary anatomy.
