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

objectiveDigital subtraction angiography (DSA) is an imaging technique used to diagnose and confirm abnormal lesions of cerebral blood vessels in various situations. Several complications such as cerebral infarction, contrast-induced allergy, and angio-site hematoma or infection can occur after DSA. We investigated complication rates and risk factors related to DSA.

methodsAll patients who underwent DSA at Incheon St. Mary's Hospital from January to December 2021 were included. Those who underwent emergency DSA due to stroke or who underwent endovascular surgery within 1 week after DSA were excluded. Complications that occurred within 1 week after DSA were included in the study and was classified into three categories (neurologic complications, contrast-induced allergy, and wound complications).

resultsThe mean age was 57.7±13.2 years old and the female was dominant at 63.9%. The overall complication rate was 5% (n=20/407). Regarding neurologic complications, the presence of malignancy (p<0.01), and a longer procedure time (>15 minutes, p=0.04) were statistically significant factors. Contrast-induced allergy did not show any statistically significant difference in any parameter. The wound complication rate was higher in men (p=0.02), trans-femoral approach (p=0.02), frequent alcohol drinkers (p=0.04), those taking anticoagulants (p=0.03), and longer procedure time (>15 minutes, p<0.01).

conclusionsDSA is an invasive diagnostic modality and can cause several complications. Patients with cancer should be more careful about the occurrence of cerebral infarction, and men taking anticoagulants or drinking frequently should be more careful about the occurrence of angio-site hematomas.
