Successful endovascular repair in two cases of graft limb occlusion after endovascular aneurysm repair for abdominal aortic aneurysms.
Article in Surgery today, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Among 148 abdominal aortic aneurysm patients who underwent endovascular aneurysm repair at our institution, two cases of graft limb occlusion (GLO) were identified and successfully treated with endovascular repair. Guidewire cannulation against the occluded limb is the most important aspect of the procedure. After a thrombectomy, balloon dilatation is performed followed by stent-graft deployment. Various procedures such as thrombectomy, thrombolysis, and extra-anatomical bypass have been adopted for the treatment of GLO. Our use of endovascular techniques, including overlapping stent grafts, has some benefits, namely, better patency of anatomical route revascularization, decreased risk of ipsilateral shower embolization due to the stent graft's sealing over the irregular remnant thrombus, and easy access to angioplasty for tortured iliac arteries. However, shower embolization during catheter handling or future fabric failure due to friction is the potential complication associated with endovascular techniques. Intravascular repair techniques and stentgraft use should therefore be an early step of the GLO treatment algorithm.
