Outcomes associated with drug-eluting and bare-metal stents: a collaborative network meta-analysis.

Lancet. 2007 Sep;370(9591):937-48, PMID: 17869634

Whether the two drug-eluting stents approved by the US Food and Drug Administration-a sirolimus-eluting stent and a paclitaxel-eluting stent-are associated with increased risks of death, myocardial infarction, or stent thrombosis compared with bare-metal stents is uncertain. Our aim was to compare the safety and effectiveness of these stents.
