Plaque Excision in Management of Lower Extremity Peripheral Arterial Disease with the SilverHawk Atherectomy Catheter.
Article in Seminars in interventional radiology, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Atherectomy, the removal of plaque from diseased vessels, is theoretically appealing with respect to various procedures used for revascularization of lower extremity vessels. Instead of damaging the native vessel by pushing aside plaque with a balloon or stent, the plaque is removed. Many atherectomy devices have been designed in attempts to achieve this goal. The SilverHawk device is the latest percutaneous device employing this treatment strategy. We discuss patient selection, technical considerations, and strategies for both above and below the knee revascularization, as well as pitfalls in each location based on our experience with over 200 patients.
