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

Pulmonary embolisms can affect 0.9 in 100,000 children and carry high risk for mortality. However, management of pediatric pulmonary embolism is largely derived from adult studies and treatment often includes local or systemic thrombolytics or anticoagulation, which may pose unique bleeding risks in children and adolescents compared with adults. This report describes a case in which catheter-directed embolectomy was used to successfully manage a pediatric patient with high-risk/massive pulmonary embolism. This case suggests that catheter-directed embolectomy is an effective therapy in patients outside the adult population and more research is required to expand inclusion criteria for current catheter-directed embolectomy treatment paradigms. Moreover, this case emphasizes the need for dedicated pediatric pulmonary embolism response teams to best serve the pediatric population.
