Supraclavicular or infraclavicular subclavian vein: Which way to go- A prospective randomized controlled trial comparing catheterization dynamics using ultrasound guidance.
Article in Indian journal of anaesthesia, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07556770 (Observational Ultrasound Study of Subclavian Vein Anatomy), which is not on this map. Cited by 12 papers.
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.
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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
aimsSubclavian vein (SCV) catheterization via the supraclavicular (SSV) or infraclavicular (ISV) approaches under real time ultrasonographic (USG) guidance is being performed routinely in critically ill patients in ICU.The aim of this study is comparative evaluation of SSV and ISV approaches in terms of success rate, time taken and incidence of complications. SETTINGS AND
designIn this prospective study, 110 critically ill patients were randomly divided into two groups of 55 each. Right SCV catheterization was performed using real time USG by single experienced operator.
methodsSuccess rate, first attempt success rate, time taken for venous visualization, puncture, catheterization, total procedure, incidence of mechanical, and infectious complications were variables used for comparison among groups. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: Normality tests were performed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. All data are expressed as the mean (SD), number (%), or median [interquartile range (IQR)] as indicated. Data were compared using the χ
resultsTotal procedural time was significantly lesser in SSV group than ISV group (
conclusionsReal time USG-guided supraclavicular subclavian approach is a viable and preferable alternative with significantly lesser total procedural time, similar success rate, fewer attempts, faster and lesser complication rates as compared with infraclavicular approach.
