Mechanical extraction of chronic venous thrombus using a novel device: a report of two cases.
Article in Journal of vascular surgery cases and innovative techniques, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
In deep vein thrombosis (DVT), the structure and composition of the venous thrombus can change rapidly over time. Studies have shown mixed results with anticoagulant and thrombolytic therapies, and the issue will be exacerbated in the case of chronic DVT (defined as thrombus still present after ≥4 weeks of failed treatment after a DVT diagnosis), with no well-accepted interventions. In the present report, we have described two patients in whom mechanical thrombectomy with a novel device was used to remove extensive, chronic thrombus. At follow-up, both patients showed improved blood flow and patency with resolution of their edema and pain. Because thrombus can often be more chronic than expected from a patient's medical history alone, mechanical intervention as the first approach might be warranted.
