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

This case report discusses the effectiveness of the Inari FlowTriever system in treating a right atrial (RA) clot in-transit in a 55-year-old male patient with Becker's muscular dystrophy (BMD). BMD is an X-linked recessive muscle disease caused by mutations in the gene that code for the protein dystrophin, which is associated with partially functional dystrophin in variable amounts. Right heart thrombi (RHT) are thrombi that can be visualized in the right atrium, right ventricle, or proximal surrounding vasculature. The Inari FlowTriever system was used to treat RA clot in-transit and removed acute, subacute, and chronic clot in a single session without the use of thrombolytics and subsequent ICU stay. The estimated blood loss with the FlowSaver system was approximately 150 mL. This report complements the FLARE study by highlighting the effectiveness of the FlowTriever system for mechanical thrombectomy of RA clot-in-transit in a patient with BMD.
