Pseudoaneurysm of external iliac artery after extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy revealing Behçet disease.
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. Cited by 2 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
Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) can lead to rare but severe arterial complications. The causal relationship of ESWL with arterial pseudoaneurysm formation in a patient with Behçet disease is discussed. A 35-year-old man presented with acute recrudescence of right flank pain caused by ureteral lithiasis immediately after having undergone a last session of ESWL. Abdominal examination revealed a painful pulsatile mass in the right iliac region. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography identified a pseudoaneurysm of the right external iliac artery in a patient with a medical history of Behçet disease. The pseudoaneurysm was treated endovascularly, including the use of a covered stent with intensive immunosuppressive therapy. We obtained successful exclusion of the pseudoaneurysm. This case highlights that arterial pseudoaneurysm may occur after ESWL in patients with Behçet disease. Strict follow-up after ESWL sessions is necessary.
