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

This study aimed to evaluate the operational performance, embolization effect and safety of CalliSpheres microspheres (CSM) in a porcine renal model. 24 healthy normal pigs were randomized into CSM group and Embosphere microspheres (ESM) group equally, and embolized with CSM or ESM in the lower pole of right kidneys, respectively. On D2, D7 and D28 after the operation, angiography and biochemistry examination were performed, and then the pigs were subjected to renal macroscopic and histopathological examination after euthanasia (4 pigs/group per each time point). The embolization was performed successfully in all pigs without obvious adverse events or deaths, and there was no difference in operation assessments (including number of embolized arteries, volume of injected microspheres and vessel recanalization rate) between CSM group and ESM group. After the operation, all pigs in CSM group and ESM group presented with renal necrosis, stasis and capsule exudation on D2 and D7, and capsule thickening, fibrosis and renal atrophy on D28, and there was no difference in these macroscopic or microscopic manifestations between two groups. For biochemistry indexes (including blood routine, coagulation function, liver function and renal function), most of them were similar between two groups at each time point. CSM embolizes porcine renal artery effectively and safely without obvious adverse events or deaths, which might be a good option for embolization therapy in clinical practices.
