  • The study conducted a network meta-analysis of various treatments for infrapopliteal artery occlusive disease, focusing on randomized controlled trials involving balloon angioplasty, nondrug metal stents, drug-eluting balloons, and drug-eluting stents.
  • A total of 11 trials with 1322 patients were included, showing that drug-eluting stents (DES) performed better than nondrug metal stents (NDMS) in terms of reducing restenosis and amputation rates, while drug-eluting balloons (DEB) excelled in target lesion revascularization.
  • The conclusion emphasized that DES offers better short-term effectiveness and limb preservation, NDMS provides superior technical success, and both DEB and DES are effective options for minimizing re
