Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm-epidemiology, predisposing factors, and biology.
Review in Langenbeck's archives of surgery, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 34 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
purposeAbdominal aortic aneurysm is a common degenerative vascular disorder associated with sudden death due to aortic rupture. This review describes epidemiology, predisposing factors, and biology of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (rAAAs).
methodsBased on a selective literature search in Medline (PubMed), original publications, meta-analyses, systematic reviews, and Cochrane reviews were evaluated for rAAA.
resultsThe hospital admission rate for rAAA is decreasing and is now in the range of approximately 10 per 100,000 population in men. Smoking contributes to about 50 % of population risk for rupture or surgically treated AAA. AAA rupture is a multifaceted biological process involving biochemical, cellular, and proteolytic influences, in addition to biomechanical factors. AAA rupture occurs when the stress (force per unit area) on the aneurysm wall exceeds wall strength. Proteolytic activities of matrix metalloproteinases have been implicated in aneurysm wall weakening and rupture. Aneurysm diameter is the most prominent predisposing factor for aneurysm growth and rupture. Wall stress, aneurysm shape and geometry, intraluminal thrombus, wall thickness, calcification, and metabolic activity influence the rupture risk.
conclusionThe best conservative option to avoid AAA rupture consists in smoking cessation and control of hypertension. Many biological factors influence rupture risk.
