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

backgroundGuidewire entrapment in previously stented peripheral vessels is a rare but potentially hazardous complication during percutaneous coronary intervention, particularly in device-related mechanisms involving interaction with implanted metallic structures. CASE SUMMARY: A 70-year-old woman undergoing left main percutaneous coronary intervention developed irreversible entrapment of a 0.014-inch coronary guidewire within a brachiocephalic trunk stent. Conventional radial retrieval failed. A bailout strategy-GRASP (guided retrieval with assisted stent protection)-combining secondary femoral access, balloon-assisted stent anchoring, and simultaneous radial snaring, enabled controlled extraction while preserving stent integrity. DISCUSSION: Device-related entrapment carries increased risk of prosthesis deformation, vascular injury, or material rupture. Balloon-assisted stabilization with bidirectional control may facilitate safe retrieval in complex scenarios. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: Distinguishing anatomical from device-related entrapment guides management. The GRASP technique may offer a safe bailout option for complex device-related retrieval.
