Infectious Aortitis: Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Aortitis is the inflammation of the aorta secondary to either infectious or non-infectious etiologies. Infectious aortitis is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition. It is more common among older patients with preexisting pathology. Clinical presentation is variable, therefore, a high index of suspicion is required for timely diagnosis and management. We report a case of aortitis which was complicated with the development of a saccular abdominal aortic aneurysm. A 76-year-old male presented to the Emergency Department with two days of right lower quadrant abdominal pain. Clinical evaluation and imaging studies revealed abdominal aortitis, which progressed to a saccular abdominal aortic aneurysm. We highlight a unique presentation of infectious aortitis to raise awareness among physicians. We also reviewed the available literature on infectious aortitis to illustrate the importance of early diagnosis and appropriate treatment to improve the patients' outcomes.
