Percutaneous transvenous coil embolization of an extrahepatic portosystemic shunt in a cat.

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.
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
Case summary: A 10-month-old male domestic shorthair cat presented for surgical treatment of a congenital portosystemic shunt. The cat had a history of lethargy and ptyalism. Pre- and postprandial bile acids were markedly elevated. CT was performed, which revealed a single, congenital, left gastrophrenic, extrahepatic portosystemic shunt. A minimally invasive surgical approach was considered by transjugular percutaneous coil embolization of the venous shunt, which was performed without complications. Follow-up protein C and serum biochemical analyses were performed at 1, 2 and 5 months postoperatively, and were improved. The cat is alive and clinically normal 11 months postoperatively. Relevance and novel information: This is the first report of percutaneous transvenous coil embolization for the treatment of an extrahepatic portosystemic shunt in a cat. The outcome was excellent in this patient, with no complications and complete resolution of clinical signs.
