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
backgroundDue to the invisibility of the portal vein (PV), how to puncture the PV accurately and safely in transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation remains a challenge of the procedure.
objectivesWe aimed to provide the first evaluation of the safety, feasibility, and efficiency of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)-based three-dimensional (3D) dual-phase vascular image fusion for interventional real-time guided PV puncture during TIPS procedures. MATERIALS AND
methodsFrom January 2021 to May 2021, 13 patients undergoing TIPS were prospectively enrolled in this study. Images of the hepatic artery (HA) and PV in 3D were acquired and overlaid on interventional fluoroscopy images in a dual-phase display mode for real-time PV puncture guidance. The number of PV puncture attempts, puncture time, overlaid image accuracy, dose area product, fluoroscopy time, and interventional complications were recorded.
resultsPortal vein puncture guided by CBCT-based 3D dual-phase vascular image fusion was successfully performed on 92.3% (12/13) patients. The mean number of PV puncture attempts was 1.8 ± 0.7 (1-3). The mean puncture time and fluoroscopy time was 3.5 ± 1.2 (2-6) min and 25.1 ± 9.4 (15-45) min, respectively. The mean dose area product was 39.49 ± 7.88 (28.81-52.87) mGym
conclusionOur results show that 3D dual-phase vascular image fusion might be a safe and feasible technique for interventional real-time guided PV puncture during TIPS. This novel technique might help to reduce the number of PV puncture attempts and the puncture time as well as lower the risks of interventional complications.
