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

Considerable progress has been made in the management of diseases of the thoracic and abdominal aorta over the past decades, ranging from advances in open repair to the advent of minimally invasive endovascular techniques. Along with this comes an equivalent rise in imaging necessity for these patients, both in preoperative planning and postoperative surveillance. With the growing complexity and diversity of vascular procedures and techniques, it is essential to have a solid understanding of the imaging features and postoperative complications of these procedures to avoid imaging pitfalls. This review is an attempt to define the normal postoperative appearance and important complications of various open and endovascular surgical techniques of the thoracic and abdominal aorta.
