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

objectivesTo investigate the long-term outcomes of stent deployment in the treatment of refractory central venous occlusive disease (CVOD) in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD).

methodsMHD patients who were successfully treated with stenting for symptomatic CVOD that was resistant to balloon angioplasty alone were consecutively included in this retrospective study. The primary (PPR) and assisted (APR) patency rates of the central vein and hemodialysis vascular access (VA), reintervention, and survival rates after stenting were followed. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to determine the factors influencing VA abandonment and mortality.

resultsThe cohort comprised 65 patients (52.3% male) aged 61.5 ± 13.5 years, with a mean dialysis vintage of 54.7 ± 39.1 months. During 40 (20-54) months of follow-up, symptomatic CVOD recurred in 32 (49.2%) patients, accounting for 51 secondary angioplasties, including 34 stenting procedures. The PPR and APR at 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60 months were 81%, 52%, 47%, 41%, and 41% and 98%, 98%, 82%, 82%, and 82%, respectively. VA abandonment was noted in 10 (15.4%) patients. Six (9.2%) and 17 (26.2%) patients died due to cardiovascular conditions and all causes, respectively. The number of secondary stenting procedures was significantly associated with decreased VA abandonment [odds ratio (OR) = 0.089, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.008-0.992,

conclusionsAngioplasty with stenting is an effective and promising strategy for MHD patients with refractory CVOD.
