Successful treatment of superior mesenteric artery thrombosis via preoperative interventional radiology and surgery using indocyanine green fluorescence.

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
We report a successful case that offered a symbolic therapeutic experience of interventional radiology and surgery collaboration for superior mesenteric artery thrombosis. A 70-year-old man presented with a chief complaint of sudden abdominal pain. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed superior mesenteric artery thrombosis. Interventional radiology was performed, and thrombotic occlusion was observed in the superior mesenteric artery trunk. The abdominal pain disappeared; however, after a while, the thrombus re-formed and the abdominal pain reappeared. Thus, emergency surgery was performed. Before surgery, thrombus aspiration was performed via interventional radiology as much as possible. During surgery, when the blood flow was evaluated using fluorescence with indocyanine green, a region of markedly poor blood flow was detected in the ileum, and the area was excised. The postoperative course was favorable. In this patient, it is possible that preoperative removal of the thrombus via interventional radiology minimized the ischemic area of the intestinal tract, and blood flow evaluation using indocyanine green allowed reliable excision of only the ischemic area. We believe that our case involved a treatment that exploited the advantages of both interventional radiology and surgery using indocyanine green fluorescence.
