Transcatheter Arterialization of the Deep Veins for Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia: A Case Series of the Direct Cost Associated With Limb Salvage.
Article in Journal of medical cases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Our study aims to estimate the long-term cost of procedurally successful transcatheter arterialization of the deep veins (TADV) coupled with adjunct therapy. Patients with no conventional endovascular/open options were considered for TADV. TADV index procedure cost, cost of subsequent procedures and wound care/adjuncts were collected. Cost data were obtained from Medicare claims and other published sources. All patients in the study had limb salvage 180 days after TADV. Success was defined as lime salvage with no more than a transmetatarsal amputation of the affected limb. The average cost of the procedure was $320,850. The average hospital cost (hospitalization and wound care adjuncts) was $895,546. The overall average total cost was $1,216,396. TADV and associated multidisciplinary wound care approach for "no option" chronic limb-threatening ischemia does not appear to be a cost-effective strategy, with an average total cost of over 1 million dollars per patient.
