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

purposeAim of this study was to identify preprocedural parameters, which may predict the application of a complex IVC filter retrieval technique and estimate the procedural outcome by applying two dedicated score systems. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this retrospective multicenter analysis, data concerning patient, filter and procedure characteristics were retrieved from January 2018 to March 2020. Patients were evaluated according to the retrieval technique (standard vs. complex) and the procedural outcome (success vs. failure). Significant differences among these groups were evaluated, and two score systems were developed to predict the application of a complex retrieval technique and the procedural outcome.

resultsOne hundred and sixteen IVC filters were retrieved in 116 patients. In 98 subjects, the filter was retrieved with a standard procedure (Standard group, 84.5% vs. Complex group, 15.5%), while in 106 patients the procedure was successful (Success group, 91.4% vs. Failure group, 8.6%). Statistically significant differences were noted in terms of embedded filter hook, filter apex tilt, angle between filter axis and IVC, caval wall penetration, dwelling time and procedural time. Two score 0-5 points to predict the need for a complex retrieval technique and the procedural outcome were developed, with a prognostic accuracy of 88.8% and 91.4%, respectively.

conclusionSignificant differences were appreciable analyzing the sample data comparing both the retrieval technique applied and the procedural outcome. Two predictive scores were developed to assess the need for applying a complex retrieval technique and to estimate the procedural outcome.
