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

To determine whether emergent endovascular repair (eEVAR) can be an alternative for anatomically suitable ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (RAAA) in a Chinese population compared to open aneurysm repair (OAR), 36 patients with RAAA undergoing either OAR or eEVAR in National Taiwan University Hospital from 2005 to 2012 were analyzed retrospectively. Thirty-five (97.2 %) patients were treated. Among them, 20 (57.1 %) were treated by OAR and 15 (42.9 %) by eEVAR. The overall 30-day survival rate was 77.1 %. There was no significant difference in 30-day mortality rate (OAR 15.0 % vs. eEVAR 33.3 %, p = 0.201) and midterm mortality rate (OAR 20.0 % vs. eEVAR 46.7 %, p = 0.093) between these two groups. On univariate analysis, free peritoneal rupture (p < 0.001), pre-operative shock (p = 0.001) and female gender (p = 0.016) are related to a higher 30-day mortality rate, while free peritoneal rupture (p = 0.012) and pre-operative shock (p = 0.030) are associated with a higher midterm mortality rate in both repair techniques. On multivariate analysis, free peritoneal rupture was associated with higher 30-day (OR 26.0, 95 % CI 2.2-295.6, p = 0.009) and midterm (OR 13.1, 95 % CI 1.2-37.6, p = 0.032) mortality rates. In patients with RAAA, there is no significant difference in 30-day mortality and midterm mortality between eEVAR and OAR groups in our study. eEVAR could be an alternative therapy for anatomically suitable RAAA in a Chinese population.
