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

The subclavian vein is one of the most frequently-used approaches for central venous catheterization. However, it demands high technical skills and accurate puncture positioning. In case of accidental misplacement into the artery, it is impossible to achieve sufficient local hemostasis. Moreover, removing the catheter without assistance may lead to severe complications or even death. This paper reports a case of an elderly patient with multiple underlying diseases. After left subclavian vein catheterization accidentally entered the aortic arch, a ventricular septal defect occluder was used to successfully remove the catheter. There were no adverse clinical sequelae after the operation, providing a new solution for the accidental insertion of a catheter into an artery in noncompressible areas.
