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

Introduction: The mainstay of endovascular treatment in peripheral arterial disease is digital subtraction angiography with an iodinated contrast. In patients with a known contrast allergy, the current most commonly used alternative is to perform carbon dioxide angiography. Operator experience and availability of carbon dioxide (CO Case report: We present a case describing the use of intravascular ultrasound and fluoroscopy to guide endovascular treatment of a critical left common iliac artery stenosis in a patient with known anaphylaxis to iodinated contrast. Discussion: Intravascular ultrasound is fast becoming the gold standard treatment option in peripheral venous interventions; however, the use in peripheral arterial disease is limited. We believe this is the first case that reports the use of predominantly intravascular ultrasound in endovascular peripheral arterial intervention with a contrast adjunct. Conclusion: We have demonstrated that intravascular ultrasound is a safe and effective alternative or adjunct to iodinated contrast for arterial angiography and stenting in the setting of patient contra-indications.
