Popis: CONTEXT The optimal treatment option for in stent restenosis is currently unclear. OBJECTIVE Systematic review and meta analysis of the effect of drug eluting balloons (DEB) to treat in stent restenosis. DATA SOURCES Trials were identified through a literature search from 2005 through 7 November 2012. STUDY SELECTION Randomised clinical trials comparing DEB with a control treatment (plain balloon angioplasty or drug eluting stents). DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS Main endpoints of interest were major adverse cardiac events (MACE) target lesion revascularisation (TLR) binary in segment restenosis stent thrombosis (ST) myocardial infarction (MI) and mortality. A random effects model was used to calculate the pooled relative risks (RR) with 95 CIs. RESULTS Five studies and a total of 801 patients were included in this analysis. Follow up duration ranged from 12 to 60months. Most endpoints were significantly reduced for DEB compared with the control groups. For MACE the relative risk RR was 0.46 (0.31 to 0.70) p
