Aortic Dissection: An Easily Missed Diagnosis when Pain Doesn't Hold the Stage.
Article in The American journal of case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
BACKGROUND Type A aortic dissection (AD) is a rare disease, with a high mortality rate. Its most common symptom is thoracic pain, which is nevertheless absent in about 6% of cases. Neurologic complications are extremely rare and include ischemic stroke and ischemic neuropathy (which are the most common as presenting symptoms), spinal cord ischemia, and hypoxic encephalopathy. These rare neurological presentations can often be missed at initial clinical examination. CASE REPORT We report 2 cases of patients presenting with seemingly mild neurological symptoms. However, diagnostic tests revealed acute type A AD, and further steps were taken. CONCLUSIONS Although it is a rare cause of transient stroke or peripheral nerve ischemia, AD should be quickly recognized as a potential cause of new-onset neurological manifestations.
