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

Objective: In the present report, we have described the technical and clinical outcomes of percutaneous thrombectomy in the deep veins of the upper extremity and thorax using the ClotTriever system (Inari Medical, Irvine, CA). Methods: Fourteen patients with symptomatic deep venous occlusive disease in the upper extremity deep veins and thoracic central veins who had undergone thrombectomy using the ClotTriever system between October 2020 and January 2022 were reviewed. The technical results, adverse events, imaging follow-up data, and clinical outcomes were recorded. Results: Fourteen patients (seven men and seven women; mean age, 53.6 ± 13.3 years) constituted the study cohort. Of the 14 patients, 9 (64.3%) had had DVT due to intravascular invasion or external compression from known malignancy, 2 (14.3%) had had infected thrombi and/or vegetation due to Conclusions: For the management of symptomatic deep venous occlusive disease of the upper extremity deep veins and thoracic central veins, thrombectomy using the ClotTriever system was feasible with excellent technical and clinical success.
