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 valve aplasia (or valvular rarefication) is a rare cause of chronic venous insufficiency. In the present report, we have described the case of a 33-year-old man with severe symmetric lower leg edema and heaviness and pain in both lower legs. Duplex ultrasound demonstrated severe venous insufficiency in the superficial and deep venous system of both legs. Further imaging examinations supported the diagnosis of venous valvular aplasia. Treatment consisted of endovenous thermal ablation of the great saphenous vein and small saphenous vein as well as consistent compression therapy, resulting in a marked reduction of his leg edema, heaviness, and pain.
