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
Purpose: Sex differences in the clinical course of coronary artery disease (CAD) particularly in Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS), have been extensively hypothesized. Although coronary bifurcations account for approximately 20% of ACS cases, data concerning potential sex disparities in the outcomes of percutaneous interventions (PCI) remain scarce. Several data suggest the double kiss (DK) Culotte may provide advantages in bifurcation PCI. Therefore, we evaluate potential sex differences in relation to the Culotte technique. Patients and Methods: This study retrospectively analyzes sex disparities following PCI interventions in ACS patients using the DK-Culotte or Culotte technique for bifurcation lesions. The primary endpoint was Target Lesion Failure (TLF), a composite of cardiovascular death, target vessel myocardial infarction, or clinically driven target lesion revascularization (TLR). The secondary endpoint included major adverse cardiac events MACE (myocardial infarction, cardiac death, and target lesion revascularization). Results: There were no significant differences between sexes regarding TLF (DK-Culotte: Females 10.3% vs Males 5.7%; p=0.401; Culotte: Females 16.2% vs Males 11.8%; p=0.481) or MACE (DK-Culotte: Females 13.8% vs Males 12.5%; p=0.771; Culotte: Females 24.3% vs Males 17.6%; p=0.370) after a 1-year follow-up for both bifurcation techniques. Conclusion: The study found no significant differences in clinical outcomes between sexes following PCI for bifurcation lesions in the ACS cohort, regardless of whether the two-stent techniques (DK- Culotte or Culotte) were used.
