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

Intercostal artery (ICA) injury and bleeding are well-known complications of thoracic procedures and trauma; however, spontaneous ICA bleeding is a rare condition usually associated with specific underlying disorders that typically lead to the weakening of vasculature. Herein, we present a 42-year-old male with a history of Buerger's disease who developed spontaneous bleeding of the second left ICA after undergoing lower limb angioplasty. The bleeding was complicated by a large hemothorax and retropleural hematoma, resulting in hemorrhagic shock that necessitated massive transfusion, embolization, and eventual thoracotomy with evacuation.
