(A) Likelihood of target vessel revascularization (PES vs. SES) (n = 5,542 diabetic patients). (B) Likelihood of major adverse cardiac events (PES vs. SES) (n = 5,006 diabetic patients). Size of boxes indicates relative contribution of each study. See Table 2 for further details regarding registries included.
