State-of-the-Art Review on Finite Element Analysis Applied to Ultrathin-Strut Drug-Eluting Stents: Examining the Present and Looking Ahead to the Future.
Review in Bioengineering (Basel, Switzerland), 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
The latest drug-eluting stents (DESs) are the gold standard for patient treatment during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The latest advancements in DES innovation have resulted in the development of new stent technologies with reduced thickness in the struts. The new DES design, ultrathin-strut DESs, features struts measuring less than 70 μm in thickness. The evidence for these devices is derived from observational studies, extensive meta-analyses, and randomized trials with long-term outcomes. The investigation is focused on determining the comparative performance of ultrathin-strut DESs and conventional new-generation DESs across various clinical settings and patient lesion profiles. The objective of the seminar is to examine recent advancements in the use of very thin DESs and the potential of computational modeling in coronary arteries during PCI. An analysis of the mechanical performance of ultrathin DESs has been conducted in terms of radial expansion and stresses within the stent-vessel system. Residual stresses generated by the crimping process will also be considered.
