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

A 62-year-old man with incidentally discovered bilateral popliteal artery aneurysms presented with acute critical limb ischemia with a thrombosed popliteal stent, thrombocytopenia, and positive platelet factor 4 antibodies suggesting a diagnosis of type II heparin-induced thrombocytopenia 2 weeks after popliteal artery aneurysm stenting. He was treated with urgent thrombolysis, bivalirudin, and fondaparinux followed by re-intervention with relining of the popliteal artery stents with nonheparin-bonded Viabahn covered stents. At the 6-month follow-up, his platelet count remained above 100,000. He has been successfully transitioned to a direct oral anticoagulant without further complications.
