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

backgroundDiabetes mellitus (DM) is a well-known risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery diseases (CAD). Complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) such as PCI for bifurcation lesions often yields poor outcomes, especially in DM patients.

aimsThe effect of DM on cardiovascular outcomes in bifurcation PCI was investigated in this retrospective, multicenter, observational, real-world registry of 2648 patients with coronary bifurcation lesions undergoing PCI with contemporary drug-eluting stents (DES).

methodsThe primary outcome was target lesion failure (TLF), defined as a composite of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction and target lesion revascularization. The adjusted outcomes were compared using 1:1 propensity score (PS) matching.

resultsOverall, DM patients were more likely to be older, female, and have hypertension or chronic kidney disease. After PS matching, the cumulative incidence of the primary outcome remained higher in the DM group (7.9% vs. 5.5%, log-rank p = 0.033). In multivariable analysis, DM (HR, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.02-2.43; p = 0.040), chronic kidney disease (HR, 2.62; 95% CI, 1.27-5.38; p = 0.008), low left ventricular ejection fraction (HR, 1.92; 95% CI, 1.10-3.35; p = 0.022) and the two-stent technique (HR, 2.18; 95% CI, 1.17-4.05; p = 0.013) were independent predictors of TLF. For patients with intravascular ultrasound-guided PCI, TLF rates were similar between DM and non-DM groups (9.1% vs. 7.3%, log-rank p = 0.347).

conclusionFor patients with coronary bifurcation lesions undergoing contemporary PCI, 5-year TLF rates were worse in DM patients. Careful planning and usage of imaging devices may help ameliorate outcomes for DM patients.
