- Abstract
The article discusses the results of a study that compared percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) by analyzing reports from randomized clinical trials (RCT). It cites some shortcomings in subgroup analyses in reports of RCTs including an increase in the number of analyses from primary to follow-up. The limitations of the study are cited including the potential lack of generalizability and sample size.
