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

Background: Type A aortic dissection (TAAD) has a rapid onset and high mortality. Currently, aortic diameter is the major criterion for evaluating the risk of TAAD. We attempted to find other aortic morphological indicators to further analyze their relationships with the risk of type A dissection. Methods: We included the imaging and clinical data of 112 patients. The patients were divided into three groups, of which Group 1 had 49 patients with normal aortic diameter, Group 2 had 22 patients with ascending aortic aneurysm, and Group 3 had 41 patients with TAAD. We used AW Server software, version 3.2, to measure aorta-related morphological indicators. Results: First, in Group 1, the univariate analysis results showed that ascending aortic diameter was correlated with patient age ( Conclusions: We introduced the new concept of ABI, which has certain clinical significance in distinguishing patients with aortic dissection and aneurysm. Perhaps the ascending aortic diameter combined with AAL and ABI could be helpful in predicting the occurrence of TAAD.
