Text: Diameter stenosis at follow-up (38. 6 % + / - 23. 4 % vs 39. 1 % + / - 22. 2 %, P =. 49) as primary end point, relative late lumen loss (26. 8 % + / - 23. 7 % vs 27. 7 % + / - 22. 3 %, P =. 26), absolute late lumen loss (0. 92 + / - 0. 71 vs 0. 92 + / - 0. 66 mm, P =. 58), net gain (1. 4 + / - 0. 8 vs 1. 4 + / - 0. 8 mm, P =. 96), as well as restenosis rates (18. 0 % vs 19. 0 %, P =. 81) and MACE (13. 5 % vs 12. 2 %, P =. 71) were not significantly different between the carbonized and the pure stainless steel study arm, respectively.
