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

Breast pseudoaneurysm is an uncommon vascular complication after vacuum-assisted breast biopsy. Ultrasound-guided probe compression is typically recommended as first-line conservative management; however, technical failure may occur when probe slippage and breast parenchymal mobility prevent sustained focal occlusion of the feeding artery at the pseudoaneurysm neck. This Technical Note describes a modified ultrasound-guided compression technique that combines targeted finger compression of the pseudoaneurysm neck with concurrent breast stabilization by a second operator. A 63-year-old woman developed a postbiopsy breast pseudoaneurysm that persisted despite conventional probe compression. Using the dual-operator technique, complete thrombosis was achieved within 20 min under continuous Doppler monitoring. Follow-up ultrasound confirmed durable occlusion with interval resolution, and the technique did not affect subsequent breast-conserving surgery. This modified compression approach provides a practical, noninvasive option for managing postbiopsy breast pseudoaneurysms before escalation to invasive treatment.
