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

rationaleAbdominal aortic aneurysm is one of the most common aneurisms. Patients presenting with secondary back pain should be given prompt medical attention. Herein, a rare case of a giant abdominal aortic aneurysm that was successfully treated with surgery is described. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 33-year-old Chinese male suffered from Marfan syndrome combined with giant abdominal aortic aneurysm, and presented with back pain, fever, nausea, vomiting, abdominal distention, and constipation. After undergoing numerous tests, the patient underwent an abdominal aortic aneurysm resection coupled with artificial graft bypass. The patient's recovery was smooth, and he was discharged 14 days after the operation in stable condition. DIAGNOSIS: Abdominal aortic aneurysm.

interventionsThe patient underwent a surgery involving mass resection and artificial graft bypass. OUTCOME: The patient was discharged 14 days after surgery in stable condition. LESSONS: Giant abdominal aortic aneurysms are rarely seen, and aneurysmectomy associated with prosthetic vascular graft repair is an effective and standard treatment for such aneurysms.
