“…8,9 On the contrary, recent meta-analyses, studies of large-scale registries and single-center experiences could not confirm this finding. [10][11][12][13][20][21][22][23] Although RCTs are considered the most scientifically rigorous clinical study design, patients included in prospective trials are highly selected, carry a different atherosclerotic profile and have a decreased comorbidity compared to real-world pragmatic cohorts. 22,24 Unlike RCTs, registries and insurance claim data provide information on a more generalizable group of patients and physician practices.…”

“…The original review had been designed to evaluate patency rather than mortality; so, it is not possible to know if the groups were properly randomized regarding baseline mortality risk. 30 There is a lack of patient-level data, long-term data, accountability for crossover treatment arms, and many patients lost to follow-up which provides significant limitations on the data sets used. Therefore, even if it is argued that there is an increased all-cause mortality with paclitaxel exposure, there has not been any proof of a causal relationship between the two in the study of Katsanos et al 8 Multiple studies since have looked at the association between paclitaxel-coated devices and mortality; some studies have demonstrated no difference, while another has shown an absolute increased mortality risk of 4.6% without identification of a causal mechanism.…”
