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

objectiveTo determine the long-term patency and survival of percutaneous recanalization for hepatic vein (HV)-type Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS).

methodsFrom March 2009 to November 2014, consecutive symptomatic HV-type BCS patients were treated by percutaneous recanalization in our centers. These patients underwent main HV (MHV) or accessory HV (AHV) recanalization. Data on patient characteristics, technical success, clinical success, long-term patency, and survival were collected and analyzed.

resultsDuring the enrolled periods, a total of 143 symptomatic HV-type BCS patients were treated by percutaneous recanalization in our centers. Technical success was achieved in 140 of 143 patients. One hundred eleven patients underwent MHV recanalization, and 29 underwent AHV recanalization. Clinical success was achieved in 136 of 140 patients. The mean MHV/AHV pressure decreased from 33.5 ± 4.1 mmHg before treatment to 12.5 ± 3.1 mmHg after treatment (p = 0.000). The 136 patients were followed for 7-75 months (mean 33.9 ± 15.3 months). Twenty-eight patients experienced re-obstruction of MHV (n = 24) or AHV (n = 4) at 3 to 36 months (mean 18.0 ± 11.5 months) after treatment. The cumulative 1-, 3-, and 6-year primary patency rates were 91.1, 77.4, and 74.0%, respectively. The cumulative 1-, 3-, and 6-year secondary patency rates were 97.0, 92.4, and 88.8%, respectively. The cumulative 1-, 3-, and 6-year survival rates were 97.7, 92.2, and 90.0%, respectively.

conclusionPercutaneous recanalization can provide good long-term patency and survival in HV-type BCS patients.
