A case report of mycotic pseudoaneurysm in childhood: an unusual complication of coarctation of the aorta.

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
backgroundWe report on an unusual case of a 3 year-old girl with coarctation of the aorta complicated by mycotic pseudoaneurysm and infected with CASE SUMMARY: The only symptoms and signs were fever and weak femoral pulses. The echocardiography confirmed a localised isthmic's coarctation. In order to complete the evaluation, a CT scan was performed. This proved crucial in terms of the diagnosis and decision to perform emergency surgery. The diagnosis was confirmed surgically. An aortic rupture was contained by the parietal pleura. Bacteriological analysis of surgical specimens revealed bacterial DNA that tested positive for DISCUSSION: Surgical repair of coarctation of the aorta is frequently performed in children. However, complicated forms are less common with a potentially fatal outcome. Indeed, there are no recommendations concerning the management and surgical timing of mycotic pseudoaneurysm. These rare complications should be kept in mind. Although short- and medium-term follow-up of these children is good, caution should be exercised with long-term follow-up because of complications in childhood and adulthood.
