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

introductionVarious collateral pathways maintain blood flow to the lower extremities in patients with Leriche syndrome. The occurrence of true aneurysms in the lumbar artery-a component of an extensive collateral circulation network in patients with Leriche syndrome-is extremely rare. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 73-year-old man with Leriche syndrome was diagnosed with lumbar artery aneurysm complicated by a duodenal fistula. The patient underwent endovascular repair, surgical duodenal fistula closure, and debridement of the aneurysm wall until coil exposure. DISCUSSION: With the same mechanism, patients with aortic occlusive disease may develop an aneurysm and arterio-enteric fistula in the collateral circulation. Combination of treatments may be important for hemostasis, control of infection, and maintaining adequate distal perfusion.

conclusionEndovascular embolization can control bleeding as well as serve as a landmark for the debridement of contaminated aneurysm. Surgical fistula closure and aneurysm-wall debridement are useful for control of local infection.
