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

In the last 5 years, the use of nonthermal, nontumescent endovenous ablation such as cyanoacrylate glue (CAG) for treatment of chronic venous insufficiency has gained global popularity. This case series discusses the presentation and management of delayed access sheath site infections in patients who have undergone CAG therapy. The authors believe such adverse effects are related to granuloma formation owing to a hypersensitivity reaction to CAG at the puncture exit site. The endovenous surgeon should be aware of preventing glue spillage into the subcutaneous space at the access site during treatment, to minimize the risk of this complication developing.
