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

Endovascular inferior vena cava (IVC) mass biopsy emerges as a minimally invasive promising technique for the acquisition of tissue samples for histological analysis, crucial for determining the malignant or benign nature of the lesion and guiding subsequent treatment. This report details the first successful off label use of a low-profile 5.2Fr biliary forceps system, via a 7Fr sheath, for endovascular IVC biopsy in a 61-year-old male patient with a history of left nephrectomy due to Gravitz tumour presenting with IVC thrombosis at 5-years follow up, suspicious for recurrence.
