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

Coronary bifurcation lesions are considered among the most challenging lesions to treat with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), particularly in cases of extensively diseased branches. In the event of failure of a provisional (one-stent) approach, many two-stent bifurcation techniques can be performed for the treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions. Two techniques (culotte and T/TAP) are suggested by the European Bifurcation Club, but a reverse crush is performed by some operators. This study aims to retrospectively compare these two different approaches (EBC-recommended techniques vs. reverse crush).
