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

Thoracic aortic aneurysms represent a potentially life-threatening disease with increasing prevalence, probably related to the increasing mean age of the global population; the complications of thoracic aortic aneurysms can show multiple modes of presentation in the acute phase based on various factors, including the involvement of the structures with which the aneurysm is in close anatomical relationship. With this case report we want to show how it is possible that a complicated ascending aortic aneurysm can mimic an acute pulmonary embolism/acute cor pulmonale in the acute phase; the earliest possible differential diagnosis between pulmonary embolism and acute aortic disease is of crucial importance due to the opposite implications that the treatment of these two diseases have. <
