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

A 70-year-old woman on four antihypertensive drugs including diuretics presented with accelerated hypertension and acute pulmonary oedema. She had a bounding brachial pulse with feeble femoral pulses. A 256 slice CT scan revealed the presence of severe diffuse thoracoabdominal atherosclerosis. Cardiac catheterisation revealed 125 mm Hg gradient across the atherosclerotic segment at the level of thoracic 10-11 vertebrae. A self-deploying stent was implanted in the thoracoabdominal segment reducing the gradient across the disease segment to 20 mm Hg with a significant improvement in the luminal diameter of the aorta. Her upper limb blood pressure normalised on two antihypertensive drugs 6 weeks later.
