Outcomes of patients treated with a biodegradable-polymer sirolimus-eluting stent versus durable-polymer everolimus-eluting stents after rotational atherectomy.
Article in Clinical research in cardiology : official journal of the German Cardiac Society, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveTo compare Orsiro biodegradable-polymer sirolimus-eluting stent (Orsiro BP-SES) with durable-polymer everolimus-eluting stent (DP-EES) regarding target lesion failure (TLF) after rotational atherectomy (RA), with a focus on small stents (diameter ≤ 3 mm) where Orsiro BP-SES has 60 µm strut thickness, while DP-EES remains with 81 µm strut thickness.
backgroundNew-generation drug-eluting stent (DES) is superior to early-generation DES in all percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) settings including RA. Recently, the Orsiro BP-SES was superior to a DP-EES in an all comer's population.
methodsAmong patients who underwent RA at a single center, 121 were treated with Orsiro BP-SES and 164 with DP-EES (Promus and Xience). Those treated with other stent types, presenting with acute myocardial infarction or had a chronic total occlusion were excluded. Incidence of TLF was assessed.
resultsAfter 2 years, the TLF rate in Orsiro BP-SES and DP-EES groups was 10% and 18%, respectively (adjusted HR 0.55, 95%CI 0.26-1.16, p = 0.115). The rate of TLF was significantly lower in small Orsiro BP-SES with ultra-thin struts as compared to DP-EES with the same diameters (adjusted HR 0.19, 95% CI 0.04-0.87, p = 0.032), driven by lower rates of clinically driven target lesion revascularization (log-rank p = 0.022). Age (p = 0.035), total stent length (p = 0.007) and diabetes mellitus (p = 0.011) emerged as independent predictors of TLF in the whole population.
conclusionIn the whole cohort, Orsiro BP-SES and DP-EES had comparable rates of long-term TLF after RA. In the small stent subgroup, the Orsiro BP-SES with ultra-thin struts showed significant lower rate of TLF at 2 years.
