The recent RCA stenosis and SCD paper is a good teaching example. Through a single study, we can discuss time zero, immortal time, prediction vs. causality, confounders, mediators, colliders, overadjustment, etc..

Thank you @realarainmd for posing such a thought-provoking question. I believe that ORBITA-CTO is eagerly awaited by all cardiologists, especially those in the CTO community. Many CTO operators are expecting a result that supports their perspective that CTO opening offers benefits beyond a placebo effect. However, regardless of the outcome, the debate is likely to continue. I would also like to specifically thank @rallamee for introducing the concept of “ORBITA-like” into the medical literature. 2/

IVI use being associated with such benefit in the very early period (first 3-5 days) is clinically implausible. In addition to your points, I would add the following: - Key claim: IVI-PCI ≈ CABG - But the data come from 3 very different sources, and the mixing creates serious bias concerns. 1/
PCI vs. PCI - More reflections on the study by Gim et al The sticking point for me (and others like @aymanka, @ihtanboga, @GreggWStone) is the immediate separation of the curves bet. the PCI arms. It is difficult to see how immortal time bias alone accounts for this. doi: 10.1016/j.jcin.2025.11.036
