Estimates using data from
RCTs and non‐RCTs;
Mixing pre‐specified with
post‐hoc diabetic
subgroup analysis
5. RESULTS
13 RCTs included (4372 patients)
Only 6 RCTs with pre‐specified subgroup
analysis (46%) for diabetics
Trials with post‐hoc analyses reporting mostly
mortality
Substantial difference between trials with ex‐
ante versus ex‐post analyses in the
distribution of risk factors namely proportion
of patients with multi‐vessel disease and
insulin dependence
6. Up to 1 year 2 to 3 years 4 to 5 years 6 to 10 years Longest follow‐up
Results overall favoring CABG at 5 years only;
Identified only in trials with a pre‐specified
subgroup comparison;
Meta‐regression model with dummy for pre‐
specification (0=post‐hoc; 1=pre‐specified) not
significant but funnel plot suggests that larger
studies with lower variance favor CABG.
RESULTS
7. DISCUSSION
The large amount of existing reviews examining the effectiveness of CABG versus
PCI did not return more consensus in results;
Many potential sources of bias identified, in particular combining very distinct
follow‐up duration and data from ex‐ante versus ex‐post subgroup analysis;
In particular for all‐cause mortality, there are conflicting results depending on
whether the diabetic subgroup analysis was pre‐specified; CABG best option in
the long‐term only in trials pre‐specifying diabetes;
Future Research should address:
The implications of this result to other high‐risk patients and risk factors (e.g., kidney disease)
If this difference is identified in trials comparing stents versus stents
Possible consequences for the estimation of relative cost‐effectiveness between revascularization strategies
