Acute traumatic injury of the aorta: presentation, diagnosis, and treatment.
Review in Annals of translational medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Despite advances in detection and treatment, acute traumatic aortic injury (ATAI) is associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. Both physical and hemodynamic forces have been postulated as mechanisms of aortic injury during a traumatic event. For patients who survive the initial injury, rapid detection is critical for diagnosis and procedural planning, which requires a thorough knowledge of both its clinical presentation and the available diagnostic imaging modalities. Radiography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can each have a role in the diagnosis of ATAI. After stabilization of the patient, the management of ATAI is guided by the severity of injury. Appropriately selected patients with low grade injuries may be managed non-operatively. When treatment is required, there are both open surgical and endovascular options. In current practice, endovascular approaches with stent-graft placement are preferred due to their high clinical success and low rates of complications. Complications from endograft placement can include: endoleak, endograft collapse, infection, endograft failure, and endograft migration. Open surgical repair is now reserved for patients with unfavorable anatomy for endovascular therapies. This review provides a comprehensive overview of ATAI including its epidemiology and demographics, mechanisms of injury, clinical and radiographic diagnosis, treatment options, and post-therapeutic follow-up.
