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

BACKGROUND AND

aimParadoxical embolism is a rare condition in which a thrombus migrates from the venous system to the arterial circulation, usually through a patent foramen ovale (PFO). Pulmonary embolism (PE) and isolated occlusion of one renal artery has been seldom reported.

methodsWe describe a case of a 47-year old white man with a one-month history of exertional dyspnea who was admitted to our hospital for  severe pain in the right lumbar region.

resultsA computed tomography showed  PE and a thrombotic occlusion of the right renal artery. A trans-thoracic echocardiogram documented a PFO with right to left shunt. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and venous compression ultrasonography of the lower extremities were normal. Therapeutic anticoagulation was started.

conclusionsPulmonary embolism and thrombotic occlusion of one renal artery is a rare manifestation of paradoxical embolism. Exertional dyspnea is an atypical manifestation of PE and can delay the diagnosis.
