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

Budd-Chiari syndrome is an uncommon disorder characterized by occlusion of hepatic veins. It can lead to portal hypertension. Most common causes of this syndrome are hypercoagulability states. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt is often not possible given the portal venous thrombosis. In these cases, direct intrahepatic portocaval shunt, involving the creation of an access between the portal vein and the systemic circulation via the intrahepatic inferior vena cava has proven to be a feasible alternative, and can improve portal hypertension in these patients. Herein, we present a case of a 37-year-old woman diagnosed with Budd-Chiari syndrome that was successfully treated with percutaneous ultrasound (US)-guided direct intrahepatic portocaval shunt.
