1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeThis study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of transcatheter embolisation in the treatment of spontaneous extraperitoneal haemorrhage (SEH). MATERIALS AND

methodsWe retrospectively evaluated the technical and clinical success in terms of immediate and long-term mortality in a series of patients who underwent endovascular treatment of SEH from January 2005 to December 2010. A statistical comparison of pre- and postoperative transfusion requirements was performed by using the Student's t test, with statistical significance set at p < 0.005.

resultsIn the period considered, 30 patients (16 women and 14 men; mean age, 73.3 years ±15.6) with SEH underwent endovascular treatment. Technical success was obtained in all cases (100 %), and a statistically significant reduction in blood transfusion requirements was observed (mean preoperative requirement: 7.5 U/day ±3; mean postoperative requirement 2.8 U/day) (p < 0.005). We observed a postoperative mortality of 10 % (3/30 patients) and mortality at 6 and 12 months was 14.8 % (4/27 patients) and 26 % (6/23 patients), respectively.

conclusionAccording to our experience and to the literature, transcatheter arterial embolisation represents the treatment of choice in patients with SEH, as it ensures complete therapeutic success.
