Initial experience with polymer endovascular aneurysm repair using the Alto stent graft.
Article in Journal of vascular surgery cases and innovative techniques, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05234892 (ALTo endogrAft Italian Registry), which is not on this map. Cited by 11 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.

Abstract
The Alto Abdominal Stent Graft System (Endologix Inc, Irvine, Calif) is the next-generation Ovation system for polymer endovascular aneurysm repair. The most significant design change relocates the sealing ring closer to the top of the fabric, but a number of additional design changes were made. This report describes the first seven patients treated with the Alto stent graft at a single center (Auckland Hospital, Auckland, New Zealand) from August 2016 to February 2017. There was 100% procedural technical success. At 12-month follow-up, no type I or type III endoleak, stent graft migration, abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture, abdominal aortic aneurysm-related mortality, or secondary intervention was reported.
