The Delay of Recanalisation of Acutely Thrombosed Dialysis Arteriovenous Access Until the Next Workday has No Negative Impact on Clinical Outcome.

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
purposeThe necessity of providing endovascular recanalization of acutely thrombosed arteriovenous access (AV access) during weekend is questionable, since hemodialysis can alternatively be achieved by temporarily placed non-tunneled central venous catheters (CVC). Interventional therapy of acutely thrombosed AV access is provided only on weekdays in the study center. This study aimed to compare outcomes in patients admitted on weekdays and on the weekend.
methodsA total of 355 endovascular procedures for thrombosed AV access performed in a single tertiary center from 2007 to 2017 were retrospectively analyzed for technical and clinical success, complications, rate of CVC and length of hospitalization. Technical success was defined as adequate blood flow with less than 30% residual stenosis, clinical success was defined as at least one successful hemodialysis after recanalization. There were two groups: patients who had to wait at least 2 days for recanalization due to admission at the weekend (n = 59, at-the-weekend group, ATW group) and patients receiving therapy no later than the day after admission (n = 296, on a working day group, OAW group).
resultsThe technical/clinical success rate was 96.6%/88.1% in the ATW and 89.1%/84.6% in the OAW group (p > .05). Complications did not differ among groups (p > .05). Despite a higher rate of CVC, no attributed additional adverse events or complications were observed in the ATW group (p > .05).
conclusionDespite a longer time until treatment and a higher rate of short-term CVC, it seems to be justified to provide recanalization of dialysis shunts only during weekdays.
