Central Illustration: Stent Type and Outcomes in Dialysis: Direct comparison of drug-eluting stents and bare metal stents in patients on dialysis

Hazard ratios comparing drug-eluting stents with bare-metal stents after percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with end-stage renal disease on dialysis for the specified outcomes using 2 different analytical approaches. Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals [CI]. Abbreviations: MI = myocardial infarction; Revasc = revascularization. Abbreviations: ESRD = end-stage renal disease on dialysis; PCI = percutaneous coronary intervention; DES = drug-eluting stent; BMS = bare metal stent.
