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

Interventional treatment of very elderly patients with severe coronary artery disease is currently one of the central topics in interventional cardiology. Technological progress and increased life expectancy have made these patients appropriate candidates for contemporary standards of care, especially those with an active lifestyle. We hereby report the case of a 95-year-old patient hospitalized for acute myocardial infarction, who underwent a complex percutaneous coronary intervention with mechanical circulatory support. A literature review on mechanical circulatory support devices in older adults is also provided.
