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

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common cardiovascular disease associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality whereas it induces substantial health care costs and increased use of resources. The current standard of treatment for acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is anticoagulation, although revascularization can be considered in younger patients with severe symptoms and extensive thrombus burden to prevent long-term sequalae of VTE (eg, recurrent DVTs, post-thrombotic syndrome post-pulmonary embolism syndrome, and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension). A rare cause of VTE is anomalous development of the inferior vena cava (IVC) and can challenge endovascular revascularization. This case report describes a case of hypoplastic supra hepatic IVC, associated with distal IVC occlusion and bilateral lower extremity DVTs treated successfully with suction thrombectomy and on table only thrombolysis, avoiding the higher risk for major bleeding, intensive care unit admission and prolonged hospitalization associated with prolonged tissue plasminogen activator infusion.
