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

Coronary stent fractures (SFs) are an emerging complication of coronary stents. There are numerous risk factors for SF, which include vessel angulation, use of sirolimus-eluting stent (SES), long stents, multiple stent layers, stent overlap, inflammation, hypersensitivity, stenting in the right coronary artery, heavy calcification, ostial bifurcational lesions, and stent overexpansion. There have been reports of SF in BES (Nobori) in past studies, but no reports on BES (Biofreedom) have been documented yet. SF increases the risk of in-stent restenosis, stent thrombosis (ST), target lesion revascularization and major adverse cardiac events. A coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) is a rare complication of SF. Although the risk of CAA rupture with SF is high, the treatment and management of CAA with SF remain unclear. Here, we report the case of a 72-year-old man who had SF of a BES (Biofreedom) complicated with a micro-CAA and review some of the literature.
