Intraoperative Multivessel Embolization Reduces Blood Loss and Transfusion Requirements Compared to Internal Iliac Artery Balloon Placement during Cesarean Hysterectomy for Placenta Accreta Spectrum.
Article in Journal of vascular and interventional radiology : JVIR, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
purposeTo evaluate the effectiveness and safety of prophylactic multivessel selective embolization (MVSE) compared to those of internal iliac artery occlusion balloon (IIABO) placement in patients undergoing cesarean hysterectomy for placenta accreta spectrum (PAS). MATERIALS AND
methodsAn institutional review board-approved retrospective series was conducted with consecutive patients with PAS at a single institution between 2010 and 2021. MVSE was performed in a hybrid operating room after cesarean section prior to hysterectomy. IIABO was performed with balloons placed into the bilateral internal iliac arteries, which were inflated during hysterectomy. Median blood loss, transfusion requirements, percentage of cases requiring transfusion, and adverse events were recorded.
resultsA total of 20 patients treated with embolization and 34 patients with balloon placement were included. Placenta percreta and previa were seen in 60% and 90% of patients, respectively. Median blood loss in the MVSE group was 713 mL (interquartile range [IQR], 475-1,000 mL) compared to 2,000 mL (IQR, 1,500-2,425 mL) in the IIABO group (P < .0001). The median total number of units of packed red blood cell transfusions (0 vs 2.5) and percentage of cases requiring a transfusion (20% vs 65%) were less in the MVSE group (P < .01). A median of 4 vessels (IQR, 3-9) were embolized during MVSE. No major adverse events or nontarget embolization consequences were observed.
conclusionsProphylactic MVSE is a safe procedure that reduces operative blood loss and transfusion requirements compared to those of IIABO in patients undergoing cesarean hysterectomy for presumed higher-degree PAS.
