Study on the potential clinical significance of subclinical stent edge effects after drug-eluting stent implantation.
Trial report in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02140801 (A Randomised, Open-label, Parallel Group, Multi-center Study Using OCT to Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Ticagrelor With Clopidogrel in the Prevention of Subclinical Thrombus in Patients After Drug-eluting Stent Implantation), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
The edge effect (EE) of isolated restenosis at one or both ends of a stent is not reduced by drug-eluting stent (DES). The purpose of the study was to investigate the long-term outcome of 1-year subclinical DES-EE (sDES-EE), which was defined as any reduction in the minimal lumen area (MLA) at stent edge without any evidence of clinical ischemia. A total of 252 patients were enrolled from one of our previous randomized controlled studies, who were detected by optical coherence tomography (OCT) immediately after DES implantation and 1 year later. The primary endpoint was EE-related target lesion failure (EE-TLF) at 5 years. Secondary endpoints were the changes of morphologies and composition of stent edge plaque, and each component of EE-TLF. sDES-EE at 1 year was significantly correlated with EE-TLF at 5 years by binary logistic regression analysis after propensity scoring. The most valuable cutoff value of sDES-EE at 1 year was a 25% MLA reduction at the stent edge, according to receiver operating characteristic analysis, which showed a major increase in lipid normalized total volume (0.99 ± 0.25 mm
