Recurrent TIPS dysfunction and variceal bleeding: A combined, staged, use of large-bore aspiration thrombectomy and partial splenic artery embolization-A case report.

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
A 51-year-old man, with a history of cirrhotic portal hypertension and recurrent transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) stenoses, presented with an acute gastro-esophageal variceal hemorrhage in the setting of an acute and massive thrombotic TIPS shunt occlusion. The clinical presentation was complicated by patient's severe, chronic thrombocytopenia which had precluded empiric anticoagulation previously for recurrent TIPS dysfunction. Following endoscopic treatment of the variceal bleeding, the CAT 12 Indigo aspiration system (Penumbra) was used to remove a large burden of thrombus from the TIPS, allowing successful re-stenting and restoration of blood flow through the TIPS. A staged partial splenic artery embolization was performed a few days later to reduce hypersplenism and treat the thrombocytopenia. The patient was then therapeutically anticoagulated to prevent future TIPS occlusion.
