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

purposeTo compare the patency outcomes and safety profile between the modified TR Band and the PreludeSYNC DISTAL (PSD) for hemostasis following distal transradial access (dTRA) for transarterial chemoembolization (TACE).

methodsThis prospective randomized trial enrolled 104 participants undergoing TACE via dTRA (143 procedures, all performed using a 4-Fr catheter. Participants achieved hemostasis with either the modified TR Band (n = 74) or PSD (n = 69). The primary endpoint was the incidence of radial artery occlusion (RAO) assessed by Doppler ultrasonography at 4 h, 24 h, and > 1 week. Outcome assessors were blinded. Secondary endpoints included hemostatic performance and complications.

resultsNo complete RAO occurred in either group (0/143). Partial RAO (mural thrombus with preserved flow) peaked at 4 h (TR Band: 28.4% vs. PSD: 18.8%; risk difference 9.5%, 95% CI -4.3 to 23.3%, p = 0.181) and declined to 4.1% vs. 2.9% by final follow-up (p = 1.000), representing a spontaneous resolution rate of 85.3%. Generalized estimating equations showed no significant difference in overall incidence. The TR Band group had a numerically higher rate of delayed hemostasis (> 4 h) compared with PSD (5.4% vs. 0.0%, p = 0.121). Complication rates (hematoma, pseudoaneurysm) did not differ significantly.

conclusionThe modified TR Band and PSD demonstrated comparable rates of partial radial artery occlusion and access-site complications following dTRA for TACE.
