AngioJet thrombectomy with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support for an acute large-scale pulmonary embolism with bilateral atrial thrombosis: a case report of catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome.

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
Background: Catastrophic Antiphospholipid Syndrome (CAPS), a severe systemic autoimmune disorder, predominantly causes life-threatening multi-organ failure, with a high mortality rate. It primarily affects small vessels, seldom impacting large vessels. Notably, acute massive pulmonary embolism (PE) with bilateral atrial thrombosis is an exceptional occurrence in CAPS. Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is a common cardiovascular disease that progresses rapidly and has a high mortality rate. Acute massive PE combined with bilateral atrial thrombosis has an even higher mortality rate. PE treatments primarily include pharmaceuticals, catheter interventions, and surgical measures, with integrated treatment strategies demonstrating promising outcomes in clinical practice. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can provide cardiopulmonary support for the treatment of high-risk PE patients and is a proven therapeutic measure. Methods: This report presents the case of a 52-year-old male admitted due to fever and sudden onset of impaired consciousness, with cardiac ultrasound and pulmonary artery CT angiography revealing an acute large-scale pulmonary embolism accompanied by bilateral atrial thrombosis, with the condition rapidly worsening and manifesting severe respiratory and circulatory failure. With ECMO support, the patient underwent a thrombectomy using an AngioJet intervention. The diagnosis of CAPS was confirmed through clinical presentation and laboratory examination, and treatment was adjusted accordingly. Results: The patient made a successful recovery and was subsequently discharged from the hospital. Conclusion: In CAPS patients, the rare instance of acute massive PE accompanied by bilateral atrial thrombosis significantly risks severe respiratory and circulatory failure, adversely affecting prognosis. Early initiation of ECMO therapy is crucial, offering a vital opportunity to address the root cause. In this case report the patient was successfully treated with an AngioJet thrombectomy supported by ECMO.
