The trend of percutaneous and open surgical procedures for peripheral arteriovenous malformations in the National Health Service England.
Article in Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionThis study aimed to assess the trend of percutaneous and open surgical procedures for peripheral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) performed in NHS hospitals in England between 2012 and 2018.
methodsHospital Episode Statistics (HES) is a freely available data warehouse that represents the whole population of England served by the NHS. Data from the HES database was obtained and analysed for all hospital episodes between 2012 and 2018 for the total number and trend of 'primary diagnosis', and 'primary procedures and interventions' identified for peripheral AVMs.
resultsOver the period studied, there was an increase in the total number of admissions for peripheral AVMs; total primary diagnosis increased from 2242 to 2857 per year. Open surgery remained more commonly performed than percutaneous procedures throughout the studied period. However, the overall percentage of primary procedures and interventions being percutaneous in this period increased from 29.8% to 41.0% per year. The increase in the number of percutaneous procedures per year seemed to occur in both children (from 43 to 124) and adults (from 408 to 492) over the course of the study period.
conclusionsThis study concluded that open surgery remained the most commonly performed primary procedure for peripheral AVMs, although there was an increasing trend for percutaneous procedures in NHS hospitals in England. The increase in the number and percentage of percutaneous procedures for peripheral AVMs was likely to have significant resource implications for the provision of care for patients with peripheral AVMs in NHS hospitals.
