Rare malposition following left jugular vein catheterization: Case reports and a literature review.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental medicine, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The number of patients requiring chronic hemodialysis via a tunneled cuffed catheter is increasing. The right internal jugular vein (IJV) is generally the preferred site of percutaneous insertion. In certain situations, for example, in patients with a history of multiple access failures, catheterization of the left IJV is an important option. In this report, we present two rare cases of catheter malposition after left IJV catheterization; catheter adjustments, with the help of chest radiographs, resulted in a positive outcome in both cases. These cases exemplify the difficulties associated with left IJV catheterization, of which there are few reports in the published literature.
