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

backgroundIschemic stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), and pulmonary embolism (PE) are emergent conditions which can be treated with catheter-directed therapies. Concomitant management of these conditions with catheter-directed therapy is not well-documented and lacks strong guidelines. CASE SUMMARY: A 70-year-old woman presented with stroke symptoms and ST-segment elevation MI. Rapid stroke protocol imaging confirmed ischemic stroke and extensive bilateral PE. To address these conditions rapidly and because of contraindications for systemic thrombolysis, she underwent percutaneous coronary intervention without stenting, stroke thrombectomy, and finally pulmonary thrombectomy. DISCUSSION: This case provides insight into the management of a patient with 3 emergent pathologies with catheter-directed therapy. We also provide reasoning for decisions such as vena cava filter placement and forgoing coronary stent placement. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: This extreme case highlights the use of catheter-directed therapy for a scenario which lacks clear guidelines. Catheter-directed therapy was successfully used to treat ischemic stroke, MI, and PE in a complex patient, resulting in her full recovery.
