Venographic Assistance in Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter Placement in a Pediatric Patient: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) are commonly used in pediatric patients for long-term IV access because of their ease of insertion and lower risk of complications such as pneumothorax or hemothorax. However, difficulties may arise when advancing the catheter due to venous stenosis or occlusion. We reported a pediatric case requiring prolonged antibiotic therapy for sacral osteomyelitis, in which PICC placement was initially unsuccessful because of resistance encountered during catheter advancement. Venography revealed significant venous stenosis, which allowed successful catheter placement after the guidewire was redirected into a patent vessel. This case highlighted the utility of venographic assistance in instances of PICC insertion failure.
