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

backgroundEndovascular therapy (EVT) for aortoiliac (AI) disease has shown favorable outcomes with recent advances in technology. Furthermore, the transradial approach (TRA) has emerged as a less invasive alternative to transfemoral access, improving patient comfort. However, data on CS implantation using the TRA remain limited. CASE PRESENTATION: We report two cases in which a VIABAHN® VBX-CS (W.L. Gore & Associates, Flagstaff, AZ, USA) were successfully deployed for AI disease using the TRA. In both cases, a 6-Fr transradial guiding sheath was used. The CSs were advanced and accurately deployed using a TRA without complications. The completion of the angiography confirmed the proper expansion and positioning of the CS. Both patients were discharged uneventfully without access-site complications. DISCUSSION: These cases demonstrate the feasibility and safety of AI balloon-expandable CS implantation using the TRA. The evolution of the device has enabled the delivery of relatively large CS using the TRA, expanding the applicability of this less invasive technique.

conclusionTransradial CS treatment may be a promising procedure for AI lesions, offering both procedural safety and patient comfort.
