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

backgroundPatients suffering from coronary artery disease (CAD) are experiencing significantly improved outcomes in clinical practice through the use of drug-eluting stents. However, there is still a dearth of real-world long-term data, especially from different patient populations in India, whose clinical presentation is frequently different from trial patient populations. The purpose of this study was to retrospectively assess NeoHexa coronary stent's long-term safety and effectiveness in all-comer patients, covering both ordinary and pandemic-era clinical settings, during an average follow-up duration of five years.

aimTo investigate long-term safety and effectiveness of NeoHexa sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) in managing CAD among real-world all-comer patient population.

methods740 individuals with CAD who had undergone percutaneous coronary intervention with NeoHexa SES minimum 2 years prior to the study were included in this single center retrospective, observational analysis. The data was extracted from medical records and patients were followed-up telephonically. The primary safety endpoint included cumulative major adverse cardiac event (MACE) at time of follow up (≥ 2 years after implantation). MACE was defined as a composite endpoint consisting of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, and target lesion revascularization (TLR). The primary efficacy endpoint involved sustained relief of angina or angina-equivalent symptoms at two years post- implantation, without the need for TLR. The secondary endpoints included individual components of MACE, all-cause mortality, target vessel revascularization and stent thrombosis.

resultsAt a mean follow-up period of 62.17 ± 9.86 months, 32 subjects (4.32%) experienced the key safety endpoint of MACE. This included 13 patients (1.76%) with TLR/target vessel revascularization and 19 patients (2.57%) with cardiac mortality. Additionally, non-cardiac mortality occurred in 35 cases (4.73%). In terms of effectiveness, 673 patients (90.95%) did not require revascularization and remained clinically stable in New York Heart Association functional class I-II.

conclusionThe study suggests favourable long-term safety and efficacy of NeoHexa SES in a real-world setting with varied clinical presentations.
