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

objectiveEvaluate the efficacy and safety of renal artery embolization (RAE) for iatrogenic renal vascular injuries (IRVI) management at Fondazione Policlinico Universitario "A. Gemelli" IRCCS, in the last 5 years.

methodsRetrospective analysis of all RAE procedures performed from January 2013 to December 2017. Patients-related (age, sex, vascular variants, hemoglobin and serum creatinine), IRVI-related (type and vascular level of IRVI, presence and extension of hematoma), management-related (temporal interval between diagnostic imaging and RAE) and procedure-related (embolic materials, technical success, clinical success and complications) parameters were evaluated.

results28 RAE procedures performed on 28 patients (21 males; 7 females) were included. 19/28 patients had pseudoaneurysm, 7/28 active bleeding and 1/28 arteriovenous fistula; 4/28 patients had a combination of 2 IRVI.The extent of perirenal hematoma showed correlation with the cause of IRVI (

conclusionRAE is safe and effective for the management of iatrogenic IRVI showing high technical and clinical success rate and low complication rate. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: Low pre-procedural hemoglobin levels increase procedural duration time. Glue alone or in combination with other materials is as safe as coils.
