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

Acute lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a common disorder with significant associated morbidity, including pain and swelling, as well as the risk of pulmonary embolism (PE), recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) and chronic debilitating post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). Anticoagulation is standard of care for DVT treatment. It assists in reducing thrombus progression and the occurrence of PE, but incomplete DVT resolution increases the risk of recurrent VTE, valvular insufficiency, and PTS. Endovascular DVT interventions, such as catheter-directed thrombolysis, pharmacomechanical thrombectomy, and large-bore mechanical thrombectomy offer an alternative therapeutic strategy for DVT management. This paper will discuss technical factors and current issues when performing lower extremity DVT interventions including patient selection, anticoagulation, choice of device for endovascular thrombus removal, adjunctive techniques, and venous stent management.Level of Evidence: No level of evidence for: review articles, basic science, laboratory investigations, and experimental study articles.
