Nationwide Study of the Outcome of Treatment of Lower Extremity Atherosclerotic Lesions With Endovascular Surgery With or Without Drug Eluting Methods in Patients With Diabetes.

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
Paclitaxel eluting balloons and stents reduce the development of intimal hyperplasia and restenosis rate after endovascular treatment for peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in the lower extremities. As diabetes mellitus (DM) worsens the prognosis in PAD patients after invasive endovascular treatment, we assessed the effects of drug eluting technology for PAD with special focus on effects in patients with and without DM. All Swedish patients registered in the Swedish vascular registry Swedvasc after vascular or endovascular surgery for intermittent claudication, IC; (n=1948) or chronic limb threatening ischemia, CLTI (n=3353) in 2013 to 2015 were followed up regarding a composite of either major amputation and/or mortality during median 607 days and for reinterventions for PAD during median 522 days. Patients with DM registered in the Swedish National Diabetes Registry (NDR) and patients without DM were evaluated separately. The 201 CLTI patients with DM treated with drug eluting methods had a lower adjusted risk for amputation or mortality after adjustment than the 1476 CLTI patients with DM treated without drug eluting methods (hazard ratio [HR] 0.712 [0.562-0.901],
