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

Mechanical complications of carotid artery stenting are more common than believed. We report one periprocedural and one long-term mechanical complications of carotid artery stenting. The periprocedural case involved a SpiderFX distal protection device (Medtronic) hooked on the implanted stent, preventing retrieval. The long-term case involved symptomatic carotid stent fracture with in-stent thrombus. Both patients underwent successful open surgical management with segmental resection of the stent-covered carotid segment and replacement with a 6-mm Dacron interposition graft. Both grafts remained patent over a mean follow-up of 8 years. Periprocedural mechanical complications require immediate surgical intervention; symptomatic or restenosis-associated stent fractures also require prompt treatment.
