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

backgroundAcute limb ischemia (ALI) and critical limb ischemia (CLI) following ALI are life-threatening diseases. The rare potential causes of ALI include hypercoagulable state diseases, such as antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and essential thrombocythemia (ET). Hypercoagulability often make revascularization for arterial occlusion, especially associated with infrapopliteal lesions, difficult. This is because the vessels have poor run-off, and elevated peripheral vascular resistance associated with microcirculation failure, due to a high thrombus burden. There is no established treatment for this issue. CASE PRESENTATION: A 45 years-old and a 56 years-old male suffered from thrombotic arterial occlusion as a first manifestation of APS and ET, respectively. Combination therapy with aggressive anti-thrombotic therapy and revascularization, such as endovascular therapy and surgical thrombectomy based on the angiosome concept, was performed. However, the high thrombus burden caused a poor pedal outflow, and significant limb ischemia remained. Additional pedal artery angioplasty was performed to improve residual limb ischemia in each case and provided sufficient blood flow to the foot.

conclusionThe pedal artery angioplasty for thrombotic pedal artery occlusion cases, associated with hypercoagulable state diseases, seems to be a treatment option for relieving residual limb ischemia.
