Carotid stenosis: from diagnosis to management, where do we stand?
Review in Current atherosclerosis reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Carotid atherosclerosis is implicated in 20-30 % of strokes. However, the annual risk of stroke in patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis is less than 5 %. Symptomatic carotid stenosis poses a greater risk for recurrent stroke with estimates as high as 15 % per year. This paper aims to raise awareness of populations at risk for carotid stenosis, the role of carotid screening and the sensitivity and specificity of various diagnostic modalities. The results of previous trials that support current guidelines for management of symptomatic and asymptomatic carotid stenosis will also be reviewed.
