Intravascular Ultrasound in Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Consensus Document from the UK.
Review in Interventional cardiology (London, England), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
Following the recently upgraded recommendations for intravascular imaging use from the European Society of Cardiology and the American Heart Association, we present a UK consensus statement on the use of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in percutaneous coronary intervention. Developed by 26 senior interventional cardiologists across a range of UK centres, this statement reflects growing evidence and changing expectations for IVUS use. We discuss the indications for IVUS, the current patterns of use in the UK, anticipated future standards and the need for broader adoption. We propose a standardised workflow and recommend routine documentation of a core IVUS dataset to support quality and as a mechanism for improvement. Persistent barriers, such as perceived cost, training variability and procedural integration, are addressed with practical solutions, including the introduction of national training curricula incorporating intravascular imaging accreditation for operators and targeted education for allied health professionals. Our goal is to support clinicians, catheter lab teams and service leads in embedding IVUS more consistently into practice to optimise patient outcomes.
