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

In Behçet's disease (BD) patients, endovascular repair is a reasonable alternative treatment for aortic aneurysms to avoid postoperative anastomotic pseudoaneurysms. However, there are some complications that may occur after endovascular repair. We herein report the case of a 40-year-old man with active BD developed recurrent aortic pseudoaneurysms at the proximal and distal margins of the stent graft and a femoral puncture site pseudoaneurysm 3 months after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair. The aortic pseudoaneurysms were treated endovascularly, including the use of the chimney technique for the proximal pseudoaneurysm close to the renal arteries and the femoral pseudoaneurysm with surgical excision and reconstruction. Intensive immunosuppressive therapy was initiated immediately after the operation. The patient is in good condition without any complications at 8-month follow-up. This case suggests the utility of the chimney technique and postoperative immediate intensive immunosuppressive therapy in treating recurrent aortic pseudoaneurysms in emergency, active BD patients.
