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

objectiveThere is no classification system for describing inferior vena cava (IVC) injuries. The objective of this study was to develop a standardized grading system for venographic appearance of the IVC following percutaneous IVC filter retrieval.

methodsA classification system for the appearance of the IVC on cavograms following percutaneous IVC filter removal was developed consisting of two grading elements; luminal characteristics and extravasation. Luminal narrowing from 0% up to 50% from any cause is grade 1; narrowing between 50 and 99% is grade 2; occlusion is grade 3; and avulsion is grade 4. Absence of extravasation is grade A, contained extravasation is grade B, and free extravasation is grade C. This system was then applied retrospectively to pre- and post-IVC filter retrieval cavograms performed at a single institution from October 2004 through February 2019.

results546 retrieval attempts were identified with 509 (93.2%) filters successfully retrieved. 449 cases (88.2%) had both pre-retrieval and post-retrieval imaging appropriate for application of the proposed classification system. Inter-rater reliability was 0.972 for luminal characteristics, 0.967 for extravasation, and 0.969 overall. Consensus grading demonstrated a distribution of 97.3% grade 1, 1.3% grade 2, 1.3% grade 3, and 0.0% grade 4 for post-retrieval luminal characteristics. For extravasation classification, 96.4% of the cases were classified as grade A, 2.7% grade B, and 0.9% grade C.

conclusionA classification system was developed for describing IVC appearance after IVC filter retrieval, and retrospectively validated using a single center dataset.
