Left colic artery aneurysm rupture after stent placement for abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with neurofibromatosis type 1.
Article in Surgical case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
backgroundNeurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disease of the skin and soft tissue. Aneurysms associated with NF1 can occur, but a secondary aneurysm rupture is very rare, with very few cases reported in literature. CASE PRESENTATION: We describe the case of a 67-year-old female with NF1 who underwent endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture. She developed a type Ib endoleak requiring a redo-EVAR. Eighteen days after her primary operation, she was found to have two new left colic artery aneurysms. She required emergency surgery consisting of a left hemicolectomy and transverse colon colostomy. Pathology showed neurofibromatous changes to the peri-vasculature tissue, consistent with her underlying disease.
conclusionsAlthough rare, secondary aneurysms can occur following AAA repair. Patients with soft tissue connective tissue disorders, like NF1, may be at an increased risk for development of these secondary aneurysms. Endovascular repair appears to be a safe approach for NF1 patients with AAA, but endovascular management can be challenging in the setting of NF1. Surgeons should be ready to convert to open surgery if the patient displays persistent signs of bleeding or structural changes related to connective tissue disorders like NF1.
