Triaxial system in re-embolization for recanalization of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations.
Article in Polish journal of radiology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundRecanalization occurs occasionally, following coil embolization of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM), and can lead to ischemic stroke; therefore re-embolization is important. A 1.9-Fr. no-taper microcatheter that can be inserted into a 2.7-Fr. microcatheter (named the triaxial system) has recently become available, and contributes to super-selective catheterization for small or tortuous vessels. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of re-embolization for recanalization of PAVM using the triaxial system. MATERIAL/
methodsRecanalization was diagnosed in 8 patients with 13 PAVMs between June 2011 and November 2012, and re-embolization was attempted with a conventional microcatheter at first in all 13 PAVMs. However, in three of them it failed with the conventional microcatheter, and then the system was exchanged to the triaxial system. Thus, re-embolization using the triaxial system was performed in 3 PAVMs of 3 female patients, with a median age of 63 years (range, 46-73 years). We assessed technical success, complications, and outcome.
resultsThe disappearance of recanalization was confirmed by angiography in all re-embolization procedures (technical success rate was 100%). Re-embolization was then successfully achieved inside the original coils, and no branch artery of normal lung tissue was embolized. There were no complications related with this procedure. The blood flow of recanalization was decreased in all cases in a follow-up of 27-33 months (median, 31).
conclusionsTriaxial system appears to be useful for recanalization of PAVM, especially in difficult cases with a conventional system.
