1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Median arcuate ligament syndrome is the result of celiac axis compression by the diaphragmatic crura. Although the celiac artery is the most common vessel to have compression, the renal arteries may also rarely be compressed by the crural fibers of the diaphragm, which may cause secondary hypertension. We present two cases of renovascular hypertension secondary to renal artery compression by the diaphragmatic crura. The first patient was treated with open decompression and wide resection of the crural fibers, and the second patient was decompressed laparoscopically. Neither case required renal artery reconstruction. Antihypertensives were discontinued in both patients postoperatively.
