Late to early velocity index as a predictor of iatrogenic femoral artery pseudoaneurysm recurrence in patients treated with ultrasound-guided thrombin injection.
Article in Archives of medical science : AMS, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
introductionUltrasound-guided thrombin injection (UGTI) is the preferred treatment of pseudoaneurysms (psA). The potential risk of complications increases with the number of UGTI treatments needed for complete psA obliteration. Identification of risk factors for recurrent psA is needed. MATERIAL AND
methodsIn total, 508 patients with femoral artery psA underwent UGTI, followed by ultrasound examination repeated twice, at 1-week intervals, to assess UGTI effectiveness. In cases of psA recurrence, the procedure was repeated. Clinical and ultrasound data were prospectively collected.
resultsThe psA recurrence occurred in 76 (15%) patients. UGTI was repeated twice in 49 (64%), three times in 15 (20%) and more than three times in 12 (16%) patients. The median thrombin dose was 150 IU (80-250 IU), and was lower in initial procedures than repeated UGTI (
conclusionsThe LEVI and time interval between artery cannulation and UGTI treatment are strong parameters identifying patients at risk of psA recurrence. The psA volume and communicating channel length are less substantial risks, but still significant. Concomitant antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy do not affect the success rate of UGTI.
