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

Few modalities have the capacity to demonstrate massive or fragmented thrombi to evaluate the effect of catheter-based or systemic thrombosis for pulmonary embolism (PE). We herein present a patient who underwent a thrombectomy for PE using a non-obstructive general angioscopy (NOGA) system. Small floating mobile thrombi were aspirated using the original method, and massive thrombi were aspirated using the NOGA system. Systemic thrombosis was also monitored via NOGA for 30 minutes. Detachment of thrombi from the wall of the pulmonary artery began two minutes after infusion of a recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA). Six minutes after thrombolysis, the thrombi lost their erythematous color, and the white thrombi gradually floated and dissolved. NOGA-guided selective pulmonary thrombectomy and NOGA-monitored systemic thrombosis contributed to improved patient survival. Rapid systemic thrombosis for PE using rt-PA was also demonstrated by NOGA.
