Anatomical variations of the aortic arch branching pattern using CT angiography: a proposal for a different morphological classification with clinical relevance.
Article in Anatomical science international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
The aortic arch (AA) branching pattern variations are usually asymptomatic, but they may lead to complications during cardiovascular procedures. In this retrospective study, we aimed to analyze the frequency of anatomical variations of the AA and to develop a different approach of morphological classification based on radiological criteria. 1026 computed tomography angiography scans of adults were evaluated and the presence of left-sided (LAA) and right-sided (RAA) AA were determined in 1023 (99.71%) and 3 (0.29%) of patients, respectively. According to the number of branches, LAA branching pattern of each patient was subclassifed in five morphological types. Based on the order and type-specific reference points, an anomalous LAA variants were classified into 20 subtypes. Type 1 (Typical branching pattern) LAA was identifed in 781 (76.12%) of the patients. Among 242 aberrant LAA variants (four types, 23.58%), the most common subtypes; Type 2A with brachiocephalico-carotid trunk (BCT), Type 4A
