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

Purpose: The purpose of our study was to assess the value of true lumen and false lumen hemodynamics compared to aortic morphological measurements for predicting adverse-aorta related outcomes (AARO) and aortic growth in patients with type B aortic dissection (TBAD). Materials and Methods: Using an IRB approved protocol, we retrospectively identified patients with descending aorta (DAo) dissection at a large tertiary center. Inclusion criteria includes known TBAD with ≥ 6 months of clinical follow-up after initial presentation for TBAD or after ascending aorta intervention for patients with repaired type A dissection with residual type B aortic dissection (rTAAD). Patients with prior descending aorta intervention were excluded. The FL and TL of each patient were manually segmented from 4D flow MRI data, and 3D parametric maps of aortic hemodynamics were generated. Groups were divided based on (1) presence vs. absence of AARO and (2) growth rate ≥ vs. < 3 mm/year. True and false lumen kinetic energy (KE), stasis, peak velocity (PV), reverse/forward flow (RF/FF), FL to TL KE ratio, as well as index aortic diameter were compared between groups using the Mann-Whitney Results: A total of Conclusion: Our study suggests that 4D flow MRI is a promising tool for TBAD evaluation that can provide information beyond traditional MRA or CTA. 4D flow has the potential to become an integral aspect of TBAD work-up, as hemodynamic assessment may allow earlier identification of at-risk patients who could benefit from earlier intervention.
