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

backgroundEvidence underlying the use of drug-coated balloons (DCBs) as an alternative to drug-eluting stents in coronary de novo lesions is poor. CASE SUMMARY: We present a case of a 72-year-old man with an ST-elevation myocardial infarction due to very late thrombosis of a lesion previously treated with DCB in the context of an ST-elevation myocardial infarction. DISCUSSION: Long-term outcomes of DCBs in coronary percutaneous intervention have not been fully explored. Despite the concept of leaving nothing behind, we herein show a very late lesion thrombosis after DCB treatment. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE: Very late thrombosis after the use of DCBs in de novo coronary lesions should be considered as a potential complication with subsequent clinical consequences, especially when large coronary vessels are involved.
