A Fatal Case of Acute Pulmonary Embolism after Cyanoacrylate Closure for Varicose Veins.
Article in Annals of vascular diseases, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
An 81-year-old female with bilateral small saphenous vein varicosities (CEAP, C2s, Ep, As, Pr) underwent cyanoacrylate closure (CAC) and stab avulsion under general anesthesia. Fourteen days later, she developed severe dyspnea and was diagnosed with pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep vein thrombosis. Despite anticoagulation, cardiopulmonary support, and catheter-directed thrombectomy, she died 24 days after admission. Adequate heparin dosing with activated partial thromboplastin time monitoring is important. Prolonged procedures under general anesthesia may increase PE risk. Early ambulation, compression therapy, and follow-up ultrasonography beyond 24 hours may help detect delayed thrombus formation and reduce life-threatening complications after CAC.
