Successful retrieval of tip-embedded inferior vena cava filter using a modified forceps technique: case report.
Article in Thrombosis journal, 2024. 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
backgroundThe retrieval of inferior vena cava (IVC) filter is essential for preventing complications associated with the device. Advanced techniques have been developed to improve the success rate of retrieving tip-embedded filters. The forceps technique is frequently used to address this issue. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a case study of two patients who underwent a successful tip-embedded IVC filter retrieval using a modified forceps technique, which has not been previously reported. This technique involves using a wire loop under the filter tip and a forceps to grasp the filter shoulder. By pulling the wire loop and pushing the forceps in counterforce, the filter tip is straightened and aligned with the vascular sheath. The vascular sheath can then dissect the filter tip out from the caval wall and get inside the sheath to complete the retrieval.
conclusionsThe modified forceps technique we present here offers a new solution for the complex retrieval of IVC filters.
