What does this research mean for the field?

The overall incidence of coronary stent fracture is 5.5% among patients and has increased over the past 20 years, with rates influenced by drug-eluting stent type and right coronary artery lesions rather than the duration of stent placement. Novelty: ClaimNovelty.SYNTHESIS. Consensus alignment: ConsensusAlignment.NEUTRAL.

What question did this study set out to answer?

The aim was to determine reliable estimates of the incidence of coronary stent fractures (CSF).

Implication

Systematic review reports coronary stent fracture incidence in coronary interventions, indicating rising trends over two decades.

Key Points

The aim was to determine reliable estimates of the incidence of coronary stent fractures (CSF).
Systematic review of 46 articles from MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane until March 2022.
Pooled estimates obtained using random effects models with meta-regression and subgroup analysis.
Publication bias assessed via funnel plots and Egger's test.
CSF incidence was 5.5% among 39,953 patients, 4.8% among 39,945 lesions, and 4.9% among 19,252 stents.
Incidence has increased over the past 20 years, but duration of stent placement did not impact estimates.
Drug-eluting stent types and right coronary artery lesions influenced the pooled incidence.
