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

Chronic venous disease (CVD) affects at least 15-25 % of the general population incurring not only high morbidity but also considerable economical burden. The mainstay of modern treatment of CVD are endovenous therapeutic procedures and compression therapy. As far as the pathogenesis of CVD is being gradually unraveled the interest in drugs able to impact the process is growing. Here we have presented an overview of a majority of oral preparations used so far to treat CVD including venous leg ulcers. After several decades of clinical use a few flavonoid preparations, in the first place micronized purified flavonoid fraction, collected enough evidence to recommend them as a short-term adjunct treatment of CVD. However, other compounds are also promising in this regards. Yet, we need more larger and longer-term clinical trials to more precisely define effects, cost-effectiveness and, above all, capacity for prophylactic application of the drugs. Learning more about basis of CVD will help design new drugs directed at specific aspects of the disease process.
