Portal vein puncture-related complications during transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt creation: Colapinto needle set vs Rösch-Uchida needle set.
Review in La Radiologia medica, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Transjugular portal vein puncture is considered the riskiest step in TIPS creation with possible incidence of portal vein puncture-related complications (PVPC). The Colapinto and the Rösch-Uchida needle sets are two different needle sets currently available. To date, there have been no randomized control trials or systematic reviews which compare the incidence of PVPC when using the two different needle sets. The aim of this literature review is to assess the rate of PVPC associated with the different needle sets used in the creation of TIPS. From the described search, 1500 articles were identified and 34 met the inclusion criteria. Outcome measured was the prevalence of PVPC using the different needle sets. Overall 212 (3.6%) PVPC were reported in 5865 patients; 142 (3.5%) reported in 4000 cases using the Rösch-Uchida set and 70 (3.7%) in 1865 patients using the Colapinto set (p = 0.69). PVPC in TIPS creation are not related to the choice of needle set used in the procedure. To our knowledge, this is the first review of its kind, the results of which support the theory that while the rate of PVPC is influenced by many factors, choice of needle set does not seem to be one of them.
