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

Venous in-stent reocclusion can result in recurrent obstructive symptoms. Occlusions that are recalcitrant to traditional crossing techniques are inaccessible to effective therapies. However, radiofrequency-assisted recanalization techniques can mitigate the risk of therapy failure and allow treatment of previously untreatable lesions. The feature of automatic disabling of the radiofrequency wire upon metal contact can be exploited to increase the safety of crossing by ensuring intraluminal traversal and avoidance of unintended perforation of adjacent structures.
