Spontaneous resolution of idiopathic aortitis and pitfalls in diagnosis.
Article in Journal of vascular surgery cases and innovative techniques, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Idiopathic aortitis is an inflammatory disease of the aorta that is diagnosed after the less frequent infectious and rheumatologic variants are excluded. The etiology and natural history of the disease are poorly understood, and its presentation is variable; the need for exclusion of infectious, malignant, and rheumatologic causes can make its evaluation and diagnosis challenging. Treatment is tailored to the diagnosis and may include observation, antimicrobial therapies, and immunosuppressive agents when appropriate. Operative therapy is rarely needed and reserved for symptomatic patients or instances in which infection cannot be excluded. We present a case of idiopathic aortitis that resolved spontaneously with expectant management and discuss the pitfalls in the diagnosis and care of the disease.
