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

introductionEndovascular repair (ER) as a minimally invasive approach can be effective for treating hepatic artery aneurysm (HAA) with gratifying results. Microcoil embolisation is the main technique used in ER. However, the coil embolisation of a large proper HAA (PHAA) with a very wide neck tends to be extremely troublesome owing to the limited length of the inflow and outflow artery. Moreover, it is difficult because of rapid blood flow in the proper hepatic artery (PHA) and the difficulty in preserving its branch flow. Microcoil embolisation of the inflow and outflow of a PHAA with the balloon occlusion technique through an originally developed single guiding sheath system was performed successfully. REPORT: A 73 year old woman was diagnosed with large PHAA (65 mm) by computed tomography examination. The PHAA was successfully treated by endovascular embolisation with microcoils using the balloon occlusion technique through a single guiding sheath system. DISCUSSION: This method is safe and effective for the treatment of a large PHAA.
