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

purposeTo report a rare case of acute renal vein thrombosis (RVT) that was treated with endovascular thrombectomy and lysis, and discuss potential etiology and indications for catheter-directed management. CASE REPORT: A 21-year-old female athlete presented with sudden pain in her left flank and vomiting. A 3-phase computed tomography (CT) angiogram identified total occlusion of the left renal vein with no excretion from the swollen tender left kidney. Catheter-directed thrombolysis and thrombectomy were initiated 24 hours after onset of symptoms. Complete resolution of the RVT with normalized renal function was achieved. Post-operative Doppler ultrasound scan confirmed normal renal resistance and flow in the renal vein. The patient was discharged on Apixaban and remains well at 6 months. Combined hormonal contraception via an intra-vaginal ring and raised Factor VIII activity were the only identified risk factors.

conclusionAcute complete RVT with impaired kidney function is rare. Combined hormonal contraception and increased Factor VIII activity were potential risk factors. Endovascular thrombectomy and lysis restored renal perfusion and function, and can be used effectively in the management of fit patients with acutely compromised kidney function from total renal vein obstruction.
