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

Ultrasound-guided central venous catheterization is a widely utilized technique for establishing venous access in pediatric patients. While this procedure is generally associated with various complications, mechanical issues related to the guidewire are exceedingly uncommon. We report a case of a 6-month-old boy with a knotted guidewire incarcerated in the femoral vein during ultrasound-guided central venous catheterization. The patient subsequently underwent vascular surgery to successfully remove the knotted guidewire. We thoroughly analyzed the underlying causes of guidewire incarceration in blood vessels and propose strategies to avoid such rare complications.
