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

Cephalic arch stenosis causes repeated dysfunction and failure of arteriovenous access. Outcomes following balloon angioplasty alone in this location are unsatisfactory. Stent grafts have very good patency rates in this location. However, stent graft placement is technically challenging in this location due to the adverse angles and vectors of the cephalic arch. Stent graft deployment in this location is associated with a real risk of jailing the axillary vein, thereby precluding the use of that arm for future accesses and/or predisposes to venous edema. We describe a technique that was used to safely and effectively deploy a stent graft in the cephalic arch of a 65-year-old male patient.
