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

Many inferior vena cava (IVC) anomalies remain asymptomatic because of collateral circulation, but thrombosis of these channels can cause acute deep venous thrombosis with serious sequelae. For those with threatened limbs, anticoagulation is the mainstay of treatment, with endovascular pharmacomechanical thrombolysis replacing open surgical thrombectomy. Described is a severe case of massive iliocaval deep venous thrombosis with bilateral lower extremity Rutherford IIb acute limb ischemia in a patient with congenital IVC atresia. After initial thrombolysis, endovascular IVC reconstruction was accomplished to decompress the lower extremities. The patient ultimately required a right through-knee amputation but remains ambulatory with a prosthetic.
