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

purposeTo evaluate the usefulness of fat tissue as an embolic material and determine whether the embolization time depends on the size of the fat tissue. MATERIALS AND

methodsInguinal fat tissues from 16 rabbits were processed as follows: (1) fat tissues were cut into 2-mm squares, and (2) fat tissue squares were dissociated 20 × through a syringe without a needle (1-139 μm in diameter). The distal main trunk of the right or left renal artery was completely embolized using one of the two types of fat tissue. After 1 or 7 days, renal angiography was performed.

resultsOn day 1 after embolization of the renal artery with 2-mm fat tissue squares (Group 1-1) and on day 7 (Group 1-2), the reperfusion rates were 4.0 ± 5.5% and 29.9 ± 6.9%, respectively. On day 1 after embolization of the renal artery with fat tissues dissociated using a 20 × pumping cycle (Group 2-1) and on day 7 (Group 2-2), the reperfusion rates were 59.9 ± 9.9% and 74.3 ± 26.0%, respectively. The reperfusion rates were significantly different between the two types of fat tissue.

conclusionsFat tissue serves as an embolic material that changes the embolization time in a size-dependent manner.
