Endovascular recanalization for filter-bearing inferior vena cava occlusion in a dialysis patient.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Central venous occlusion (CVO) or stenosis (CVS) is a common complication of long-term hemodialysis catheters. Endovascular intervention, primarily balloon angioplasty and occasionally stent placement, is the primary approach for managing CVS/CVO lesions. The presence of a filter within the inferior vena cava (IVC) lumen makes recanalization of the IVC more challenging. Here we present a complex case of a 47-year-old female with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), systemic lupus erythematosus, and recurrent deep venous thrombosis, necessitating an IVC filter, who became catheter-dependent via the right femoral vein and presented with total IVC occlusion below the filter. The occlusion was managed successfully with sequential angioplasty and stenting of the stenotic lesions. This intervention restored venous flow through the IVC into the right atrium and maintained dialysis access through the catheter. This case underscores the complexity of managing CVS/CVO in dialysis patients, especially with the presence of filters within the vascular dialysis conduit.
