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

purposeInitial conservative treatment with selective endovascular or surgical intervention has shown successful outcomes in the treatment of spontaneous isolated superior mesenteric artery dissection (SISMAD). However, the benefits of antithrombotic therapy as a part of conservative treatment have not been clarified. This study aimed to investigate the clinical course of SISMAD patients and determine differences in clinical outcomes between the antithrombotic and no-antithrombotic groups.

methodsWe retrospectively reviewed 79 cases of SISMAD that were treated conservatively from January 2004 to December 2019 at Chonnam National University Hospital. Clinical outcomes, including the length of hospital stay, pain resolution time, image remodeling, and maximal remodeling time, were compared between the antithrombotic and no-antithrombotic groups.

resultsThere were 30 patients in the no-antithrombotic group and 49 patients in the antithrombotic group. There was no significant difference in clinical characteristics between the 2 groups, except for dyslipidemia (P = 0.011). The follow-up period (32.6 months

conclusionIn patients with SISMAD, conservative treatment without antithrombotic therapy may have clinical benefits such as decreased length of hospital stay compared with conservative treatment with antithrombotic therapy.
