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

We describe a case of a 76-year-old male with stage 3 renal cell carcinoma and known thrombus burden in his inferior vena cava (IVC) who presented for a scheduled radical right open nephrectomy with regional lymph node dissection and IVC thrombectomy. During this procedure, the patient went into pulseless-electrical activity. A trans-esophageal echocardiogram showed thrombus transit into the right atria. Emergent initiation of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and mechanical embolectomy using a FlowTriever retrieval catheter was required. The patient remained intubated in critical but stable condition. Shortly afterward, he expired due to subsequent complications of massive hemorrhage and disseminated intravascular coagulopathy.
