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
Intermediate risk pulmonary embolism (IRPE) is defined as dilatation of the right ventricular (RV) and evidence of myocardial necrosis with stable hemodynamics in the setting of acute PE. The differences in performance among the various devices in treating IRPE remain unclear. We reviewed consecutive patients treated at 2 medical centers between January 1, 2019, and December 31, 2022, using PMC devices (FlowTriever [Inari Medical] or Ekos [Boston Scientific]). Demographics, clinical, procedural variables, in-hospital complications, and 30-day outcomes were recorded from patients' medical records. Descriptive analyses were performed. The study's primary endpoint was the mean change in the RV/LV ratio. Safety endpoints included procedural complications 30-day mortality and major bleeding. 97 consecutive patients (43 FlowTriever, 54 Ekos) were included. The mean age was 64.16 ± 13.37 years. When compared with pretreatment, PMC reduced significantly the RV/LV ratio (0.55 ± 0.49, 95% CI: 0.40, 0.71,
