Acute ascending aortic dissection due to transcatheter patent ductus arteriosus closure in the elderly: An extremely rare complication of transcatheter patent ductus arteriosus closure.
Article in Journal of cardiology cases, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
It is well known that patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in adults, especially in the elderly, differs from that in pediatric patients. A 68-year-old woman with a PDA with focal calcification at the aortic orifice of the ampulla with a minimum diameter of 4.0 mm and length of 14.8 mm, was treated with a 10/8-mm Amplatzer duct occluder (ADO) (St. Jude Medical Corp, St. Paul, MN, USA). After device implantation, systolic blood pressure (BP) increased to approximately 220 mmHg from 130 mmHg. She experienced transient dyspnea from hypertensive heart failure, which improved through continuous infusion of anti-hypertensive agents. She suddenly felt pressure on her chest 12 h post-procedure and collapsed. Surgical thoracotomy revealed an ascending aortic dissection into the pericardial space. In retrospective review, the ADO may have been slightly deformed by fluoroscopy. The complication may have been triggered by the resilience caused by device deformation, damage to the aortic wall due to the aortic side of the device, uneven elasticity of the arterial wall, and uncontrolled excessively high blood pressure. <
