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

Background: The efficacy and safety of the ultrathin BioMime sirolimus-eluting coronary stent (SES) system in treating single or multiple Aims: We sought to investigate the long-term safety and efficacy of the BioMime SES in a real-world population with obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods: The prospective, single-arm, multicentre meriT-2 trial enrolled 250 patients from 11 sites across India. The safety endpoint was the cumulative frequency of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) at 5 years, defined as a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction (MI), emergent coronary artery bypass grafting or clinically indicated target lesion revascularisation (CI-TLR). Stent thrombosis (ST) was evaluated according to the Academic Research Consortium definitions. Results: A total of 214 (85.6%) subjects completed the 5-year follow-up. The mean age of patients was 57.44±10.75 years, and 82.71% were males. A total of 308 lesions were treated with BioMime SES. Most of the lesions were localised in the left anterior descending artery (45.46%) and were type B2 lesions (44.81%). The cumulative MACE rate at 5 years was 8.9% (n=19), including 0.9% cardiac deaths, 1.9% MI and 6.1% CI-TLR. The rate of ST was only 0.5%. The Kaplan-Meier survivor analysis revealed actuarial survivorship of 95.6% for the intention-to-treat population (n=250) over 5 years. Conclusions: The long-term clinical outcomes of the meriT-2 trial established the safety and efficacy of the ultrathin-strut biodegradable-polymer-based BioMime SES with satisfactory clinical outcomes at 5 years.
