Efficacy of using the mechanochemical endovenous ablation to treat chronic venous ulcers: case report and literature review.
Article in Jornal vascular brasileiro, 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
This case report presents the successful treatment of a 47-year-old male patient with a venous ulcer of the leg associated to deep and superficial venous insufficiency. The patient presented with a non-healing venous ulcer on his leg, ocher dermatitis and heaviness of the leg, which interfered with work activities. Duplex ultrasound revealed deep venous insufficiency (popliteal vein), incompetence of the great saphenous and indirect perforating veins. The treatment involved ablation of the great saphenous vein using Flebogrif®, a specific mechanochemical ablation device. Following the treatment, the patient experienced significant improvement in his symptoms and venous ulcer was completely healed 9 weeks after the procedure and one year after that. Duplex ultrasound performed after the treatment confirmed the successful closure of the great saphenous vein. This case report highlights the effectiveness of mechanochenical ablation in the management of venous ulcers, even when deep venous insufficiency is involved.
