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

objectiveIliocaval thrombotic obstruction is a challenging condition, especially because thrombus age and corresponding pathological remodeling at presentation are unknown, which directly impacts management. Our aim was to assess the ability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in determining age thresholds of experimentally created inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombosis in pigs.

methodsWe used a previously described swine model of IVC thrombosis. The animals underwent MRI at baseline, immediately after thrombosis creation, and after a follow-up period extending from 2 to 28 days. Thirteen pigs were divided into three groups according to disease chronicity: acute group (AG; n = 5), subacute group (SAG; n = 4), and chronic group (CG; n = 4), with a mean thrombosis age of 6.4 ± 2.5 days, 15.7 ± 2.8 days, and 28 ± 5.7 days, respectively. A T

resultsThe Kruskal-Wallis test showed a statistically significant difference in T

conclusionsThis study highlighted MRI characteristics in a swine model that might have the potential to significantly differentiate subacute and chronic stages from an acute stage of deep vein thrombosis in humans. Further clinical studies in humans are warranted. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: In addition to providing a better understanding of venous thrombosis remodeling over time, magnetic resonance imaging has the potential to be a tool that could allow us to characterize the composition of venous thrombus over an interval, allowing for a refined analysis of the local evolution of venous thrombosis. We propose a noninvasive and innovative method to characterize different thresholds of chronicity with magnetic resonance imaging features of central deep vein thrombosis of the inferior vena cava experimentally obtained using a totally endovascular in vivo swine model, mimicking human pathophysiology. Being able to determine these features noninvasively is critical for vascular specialists when it comes to choosing between fibrinolytic therapy, percutaneous thrombectomy, or surgical management.
