Pharmacomechanical Thrombolysis of Dialysis Access Grafts Using the MTI Castañeda Over-the-Wire Brush Catheter and Reteplase.
Article in Seminars in interventional radiology, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Pharmacomechanical thrombolysis (PMT) has emerged as an alternate treatment used in most patients presenting with a thrombosed hemodialysis graft. Although the gold standard, surgical revision of thrombosed hemodialysis grafts is reserved for those cases of recurrent thrombosis despite the use of percutaneous techniques and for complicated cases after PMT. Nevertheless, as for every other procedure, PMT has its own set of limitations and cost issues. New mechanical devices have begun to emerge on the market to help accelerate clot dissolution with or without thrombolytic medications. These devices have decreased the time required to lyse clot and decrease the overall cost of percutaneous treatment. This article describes the use of the Microtherapeutics, Inc. (MTI) Castañeda over-the-wire brush and our experience with this device in the treatment of the clotted hemodialysis graft.
