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

Adventitial cystic disease (ACD) of the veins is a rare vascular disease. Most cases of venous ACD are located adjacent to the joint area, such as the common femoral, external iliac, and popliteal veins. To the best of our knowledge, 67 cases of venous ACD have been reported, and ACD of the superficial femoral vein (SFV) has never been reported. Herein, we report the case of a 57-year-old male who presented with swelling and discomfort in the left leg. Computed tomography venography revealed multiple cystic lesions in the left distal SFV. The patient underwent cyst excision, which relieved the compression in the vein, although mild stenosis prevailed in the SFV. After a week, thrombosis developed in the popliteal vein. The thrombosis resolved after three months of anticoagulant therapy, and the patient showed no recurrence of ACD during three years of follow-up.
