Prognostic Factors Associated with 2-year Mortality in Patients with Intermittent Claudication Treated with Endovascular Therapy for Femoropopliteal Lesions: Results from the Multicenter PROCYON Study.
Article in Journal of atherosclerosis and thrombosis, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
aimFew studies have evaluated the midterm prognosis of patients with intermittent claudication who underwent endovascular therapy (EVT) for femoropopliteal lesions. Therefore, we aimed to assess 2-year mortality and prognostic factors in these patients.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 947 patients who underwent EVT for intermittent claudication between January 2018 and December 2021 at eight Japanese cardiovascular centers. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed for mortality, and prognostic factors were analyzed using the Cox proportional hazards regression model. Patient backgrounds and medications were included in the investigation of prognostic factors.
resultsNotably, 79 deaths occurred during the mean follow-up period of 20.9±6.2 months. The 2-year mortality rate was 9.1%. In multivariate analysis, body mass index (BMI) ＜18.5 kg/m
conclusionsDialysis, low BMI, CAD, and low ABI were risk factors for a worse 2-year prognosis in patients with intermittent claudication who underwent EVT for femoropopliteal lesions. Statins and cilostazol may improve the 2-year prognosis of patients with lower extremity artery disease.
