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

The objective of this study was to propose a new method for facilitating needle-beam alignment ultrasound-guided in-plane catheterization of the subclavian vein (SCV). Three hundred patients were recruited, and ultrasound examination of the SCV was performed. Then, the patients were divided into two groups and SCV catheterization was performed: ultrasound-guided catheterization with the aiming method (group A) and ultrasound-guided catheterization with needle guide (group NG). The success rate, insertion time, number of skin breaks, number of needle redirections, needle visibility and rate of mechanical complications were documented and compared for each procedure. To depict the optimum long-axis view of the SCV, there was a 30° ± 7.3° angle (rotation) between the long axis of the ultrasound probe and the clavicle, while there was a 39° ± 7.4° angle (tilt) between the ultrasound beam plane and the right chest wall. The aiming method was associated with fewer skin breaks [(mean (IQR): 1 (1-1) times vs 1 (1-2) times, P = 0.009], a shorter time to cannulation [(mean (IQR): 39 (32-48.5) s vs 48 (44-54.8) s, P = 0.000] and more needle redirections [(mean (IQR): 0 (0-1) vs 0 (0-0), P = 0.000]. There were no differences between group A and group NG in the overall success rate, first puncture success rate, needle visibility or mechanical complication rate. In conclusion, during ultrasound-guided in-plane catheterization of the SCV, the aiming method provides comparable needle-beam alignment with a lower cannulation time than the needle guide technique.
