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

Objective: We attempted to measure maximum transverse diameter (MTD) of and CT values of ILT by using multi-spiral computed tomography angiography (MSCTA) to investigate the predictive value of MTD with different CT values of thrombus on the risk of AAA rupture. Methods: Forty-five intact abdominal aortic aneurysms (IAAA) and 17 ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (RAAA) were included in this study. MTD and CT values in their planes were measured from MSCTA images and aneurysm lumen and thrombus volumes were calculated for the range of different CT values. Results: The median of maximum CT value of thrombus at the plane of MTD was higher in RAAA (107.0 HU) than the median in IAAA (84.5 HU) ( Conclusions: High-density ILT shown on MSCTA in AAAs is associated with aneurysm rupture, and its maximum transverse diameter combined with the maximum CT value in its plane is a better predictor of RAAA.
