Stent Placement for Malignant Inferior Vena Cava Syndrome in a Patient with Recurrent Colon Cancer.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
A 70-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with gait disturbance due to marked edema of the lower limbs for more than 6 months. He had been receiving systemic chemotherapy over two years for multiple recurrence after sigmoid colon cancer resection. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography demonstrated severe inferior vena cava (IVC) stenosis due to compression by lymph node metastases, i.e. IVC syndrome. As increased doses of diuretic agents failed to improve the edema, IVC stent placement was performed. This led to significant improvement of the edema and complete gait normalization. This case demonstrates the efficacy of IVC stent placement for IVC syndrome.
