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

Performance of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for bifurcation lesions involves complex decision-making informed by anatomic, hemodynamic, technical, and clinical factors. Building on the procedural foundations discussed in the companion paper in this two-part series, this second paper focuses on advanced considerations in bifurcation PCI. Factors associated with side branch (SB) compromise are discussed, including bifurcation angle and distribution of plaque location, along with strategies for SB protection and SB rewiring. Outcomes of landmark randomized controlled trials of provisional versus two-stent approaches, as well as specific two-stent techniques, are summarized. Based on these factors, an algorithmic approach for bifurcation PCI is outlined. Lastly, the use of drug-coated balloons, dedicated bifurcation stents, bioresorbable vascular scaffolds, bioadaptor stents, physiologic testing, intravascular imaging, and other emerging innovations are explored to provide a perspective on the future of bifurcation PCI.
