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

Transarterial microembolization (TAME) has gained recognition as a minimally invasive treatment for chronic musculoskeletal pain, demonstrating significant efficacy with a favorable safety profile ( 1, 2). However, complications remain underreported. This case report describes the first documented severe adverse event in a patient with a chronic venous ulcer undergoing TAME for a micro arteriovenous fistula (AVF). The patient developed significant complications, including extensive leg swelling, skin changes, and cellulitis requiring prolonged inpatient care. These findings highlight the importance of patient selection and embolic agent considerations to mitigate potential risks associated with TAME.
