Fragmented Iliac Venous Stent Migration Requiring Tricuspid Valve Replacement.

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.
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
backgroundA 36-year-old man with May-Thurner syndrome and a family history of cardiac disease underwent a screening echocardiogram, which revealed a mass in the right ventricle. Upon further imaging, the mass was determined to be an iliac stent migration. CASE SUMMARY: Our patient presented with a migrated iliac stent 2 years after placement, and a transthoracic echocardiogram visualized a circular and metallic mass. Computed tomography angiography demonstrated stent fragmentation with embolization to the right ventricle, pulmonary vasculature, and inferior vena cava, with entrapment of the intracardiac fragment within the tricuspid subvalvular apparatus. DISCUSSION: Iliac stent thrombosis and migration are extremely rare, especially with damage to the tricuspid apparatus. However, with prompt imaging and surgical intervention, valvular function can be corrected. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: In patients with May-Thurner syndrome, imaging and clinician suspicion are vital in prompt detection and management of an iliac stent migration. This case illustrates the necessity for careful clinical suspicion, timely imaging, and surgical interventions for successful outcomes.
