Figure 1 (A) Comparison between the rate of stent thrombosis in patients allocated to drug-eluting stents (DES) or bare-metal stents (BMS) in the randomized studies and in the pooled population. (B) Comparison between the rate of late stent thrombosis in patients allocated to DES or BMS in the randomized studies and in the pooled population. CI = confidence interval; OR = odds ratio.
