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

We report a case in which neointima was confirmed by angioscopy and antiplatelet drug administration was reduced 2 months after carotid artery stenting (CAS). A patient in their 80s was scheduled to undergo resection for renal cancer; however, he also had right cervical internal carotid artery stenosis. Because this was a risk for general anesthesia, CAS was performed after first starting dual antiplatelet therapy. Urologically, early reduction of antiplatelet drugs was necessary for a nephrectomy. Although no obvious neointima could be identified on ultrasound 2 months after CAS, thin neointima was observed using angioscopy. Based on the above results, we reduced the antiplatelet drug administration, and then the nephrectomy was performed. Ultimately, no cerebral infarction occurred in the perioperative or postoperative periods. Angioscopy allows for visual confirmation of thin neointima. If sufficient neointima can be confirmed, antiplatelet drug reduction can be performed more safely and reliably.
