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

Although the first choice of vascular access for hemodialysis is still the creation of an arteriovenous fistula, the increasing number of vascular access creations in Japan, as well as the inability of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty to effectively restore patency in stenotic and obstructed native vascular accesses, has resulted in an increase in the rate of arteriovenous grafting for hemodialysis. However, for patients with infected wounds, using a prosthetic graft is generally contraindicated because of the risk of the spread of infection. In such cases, options tend to be limited to less frequently used or novel methods of vascular hemodialysis access, such as basilic vein transposition and autologous vein transplantation. Herein, we report 3 successful cases of arteriovenous grafting using an autologous saphenous vein. Careful preoperative evaluation of the vascular anatomy is necessary to effectively determine the best option for vascular access in such patients.
