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

A 32-year-old man presented with acute pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, and lower extremity arterial ischemia after prolonged driving. He underwent emergency thrombolysis, thrombectomy, and inferior vena cava filter placement, and potential intra-atrium shunt was detected during the angiography. Postoperative recovery showed improved oxygenation and limb perfusion. Follow-up confirmed a right-to-left shunt via a patent foramen ovale, causing paradoxical embolism. In this article, we report and analyze this specific case. Additionally, we conduct a comprehensive review of the literature pertaining to patent foramen ovale and paradoxical embolism. Based on these insights, we propose the treatment principles for paradoxical embolism.
