Intracoronary thrombolysis combined with drug balloon angioplasty in a young ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patient: A case report.

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
backgroundThe combination of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and gastric ulcers poses a challenge to primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI), particularly for young patients. The role of drug-coated balloons (DCBs) in the treatment of de novo coronary artery lesions in large vessels remains unclear, especially for patients with STEMI. Our strategy is to implement drug balloon angioplasty following the intracoronary administration of low-dose prourokinase and adequate pre-expansion. CASE SUMMARY: A 54-year-old male patient presented to the emergency department due to chest pain on June 24, 2019. Within the first 3 minutes of the initial assessment in the emergency room, the electrocardiogram (ECG) showed significant changes. There was atrial fibrillation with ST-segment elevation. Subsequently, atrial fibrillation terminated spontaneously and reverted to sinus rhythm. Soon after, the patient experienced syncope. The ECG revealed torsades de pointes ventricular tachycardia. A few seconds later, it returned to sinus rhythm. High-sensitivity tropon in I was normal. The diagnosis was acute STEMI. Emergency coronary angiography revealed subtotal occlusion with thrombus formation in the proximal segment of the left anterior descending artery. Considering the patient's age and history of peptic ulcer disease, after the intracoronary injection of prourokinase, percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and cutting balloon angioplasty were conducted for thorough preconditioning, and paclitaxel drug-eluting balloon angioplasty was performed without any stents, achieving favorable outcomes.
conclusionA PPCI without stents may be a viable treatment strategy for select patients with STEMI, and further research is warranted.
