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

Despite advances in endovascular treatments, femoropopliteal bypass is still the best option for the treatment of lower-extremity occlusive artery disease. Omniflow II biosynthetic vascular grafts are often chosen as bypass grafts when autologous vein grafting is not possible. A negative feature of this graft is the tendency towards late biodegeneration with possible formation of graft aneurysms. In this case report, we present a thrombosed non-anastomotic biosynthetic graft aneurysm, which caused only a pulsatile mass in the inguinal region, in a 62-year-old male patient who had undergone a femoropopliteal bypass operation three years earlier. Aneurysm formation in vascular grafts is multifactorial and can cause life-threatening consequences. Therefore, all patients with biosynthetic vascular grafts should remain under lifetime surveillance with duplex ultrasound for aneurysmal graft degeneration and graft thrombosis.
