The Impact of Repeat Endovascular Treatment on Critical Limb-Threatening Ischemia for Limb Salvage.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Chronic limb-threatening ischemia due to chronic total occlusion of below-the-knee lesions is one of the most challenging cases for endovascular treatment. Restoring perfusion is crucial, and its success depends on numerous factors. Owing to the recent development of dedicated devices and techniques, endovascular treatment is becoming an alternative to bypass surgery as a first-line treatment, even for the infra-popliteal lesion, because endovascular recanalization outcomes have considerably improved. In our present case, a self-expandable Nitinol stent was placed in the tibio-peroneal trunk to treat chronic limb-threatening ischemia. At its recurrence four years later, endovascular therapy was employed because the patient had concomitant diseases and advanced age. Finally, four times repeated revascularization prevented major amputation and preserved the functional foot. This report demonstrates that repeated endovascular therapy was practical and feasible to achieve limb salvage and preserve the functional foot.
