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

BACKGROUND/

aimAs the population ages, there are increasing findings of coincidental diseases such as abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and intra-abdominal, retroperitoneal malignancy. The aim of this study was to propose an optimal treatment procedure for these patients. PATIENTS AND

methodsOver a twenty-year-period, surgery was performed on a total of 1,098 patients with AAA and 32 (2.9%) patients with AAA and intra-abdominal, retroperitoneal malignancy: 18 renal, 6 colorectal carcinomas, 3 carcinomas of the small intestine, 3 primary liver tumours, 1 stomach carcinoma and 1 teratoma. The median age of patients was 72.5 years, there were 20 men (62.5%) and 12 women (37.5%). A one-stage procedure was performed on 19 patients (59.4%), and a two-stage procedure on 13 (40.6%) patients.

resultsThe average time of hospitalization was 12.4±6.9 days (median=11.0 days) for one-stage procedure, for a two-stage procedure 21.3±9.3 days (median=20.0 days), p=0.0045. Seven patients (21.9%) died within 30 days after the operation. All the deaths were in the group of one-stage procedures (p=0.0252). The 1-, 3- and 5-year overall survival for patients following one-stage and twostage procedures was 61.0/56.3/51.5% and 89.0/79.9/53.0% respectively (p=0.1199).

conclusionSymptomatic disease must be resolved first. Two-stage procedures are the method of choice and offer better short-term results compared to one-stage procedures.
