Coronary artery bypass graft surgery <i>versus</i> stenting for patients with chronic kidney disease and complex coronary artery disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

There was a slightly significant increased risk of stroke in the CABG group compared with the PCI group (OR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.00–1.77; I 2 = 15.5%), which was largely driven by the results of the propensity-matched registries (OR, 1.49; 95% CI, 1.18–1.90), whereas no difference was found between the two strategies in subset analysis of RCTs (OR, 1.05; 95% CI, 0.55–2.00) ( Figure 3C ).
