Two Case Reports of Percutaneous Intravascular Lithotripsy for the Treatment of Severe Coronary Artery Calcification.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2026. 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
Severe coronary calcification is a common challenge in percutaneous coronary intervention, often resulting in suboptimal stent expansion. Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) employs acoustic pressure waves to fracture calcified plaques and increase procedural success. Two women, aged 85 and 76 years, with heavily calcified coronary lesions, underwent IVL prior to stent implantation. Post-procedure intravascular ultrasound confirmed effective calcium modification and optimal stent expansion (< 10% residual stenosis). No perioperative complications occurred. Both patients remained symptom-free at the 1-year follow-up.
