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

Femoral artery pseudoaneurysm is a serious vascular complication after venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) decannulation, and optimal management remains challenging. We report the case of a 74-year-old man with acute pulmonary embolism who developed a common femoral artery pseudoaneurysm after VA-ECMO removal. Ultrasound-guided compression was unsuccessful, and surgical repair was considered but deferred because of the patient's clinical condition and operating room unavailability. Balloon-assisted percutaneous thrombin injection achieved complete thrombosis without distal embolization or other complications. This technique may represent a feasible, minimally invasive alternative to surgical repair for femoral artery pseudoaneurysms following VA-ECMO decannulation, particularly in high-risk surgical patients.
