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

backgroundTo compare the characteristics of a "real world" population included in a prospective registry to patients enrolled in a randomized, controlled trial (RCT) after endovascular revascularization (EVR) for symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD).

methodsThe RECcording COurses of vasculaR Diseases (RECCORD) registry is an observational registry prospectively recruiting patients undergoing EVR for symptomatic PAD in Germany. VOYAGER PAD was an RCT which demonstrated the superiority of rivaroxaban and aspirin versus aspirin to reduce major cardiac and ischemic limb events following infrainguinal revascularization for symptomatic PAD. For this exploratory analysis, the clinical characteristics of 2.498 patients enrolled in RECCORD and of 4.293 patients from VOYAGER PAD who underwent EVR were compared.

resultsThe rate of patients aged ≥ 75 years was considerably higher in the registry (37.7 vs. 22.5%). More patients in the registry had undergone previous EVR (50.7 vs. 38.7%) or suffered from critical limb threatening ischemia (24.3 vs. 19.5%). Registry patients were more commonly active smokers (51.8 vs. 33.6%), but less frequently suffered from diabetes mellitus (36.4 vs. 44.7%). While statins (70.5 vs. 81.7%) were less frequently used, antiproliferative catheter technologies (45.6 vs. 31.4%) and postinterventional dual antiplatelet therapy (64.5 vs. 53.6%) were more commonly applied in the registry.

conclusionsThere were many similarities but some clinically meaningful differences in clinical characteristics between PAD patients who underwent EVR and were included in a nationwide registry and PAD patients from the VOYAGER PAD trial.
