Volume Changes in the Descending Aorta after Frozen Elephant Trunk and Conventional Hemi-Arch Repair after Acute Type A Aortic Dissection.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The aim of this study was to compare the mortality rates, re-intervention rates, and volumetric changes in aortas following surgery, in terms of the true lumen and false lumen changes, using conventional hemi-arch repair (CET) and frozen elephant trunk (FET) techniques. During the period from 2015 to 2018, 66 patients underwent surgical treatment for acute aortic dissection (Debakey type 1). Demographic and procedure-related data were evaluated. We measured volumetric change before surgical treatment, at discharge, and at 12- and 24-month time points based on computed tomography angiography. The study cohort was divided into two groups (FET vs. CET). The mean age of the patients was 56.9 ± 9.4 years in the FET group versus 63.6 ± 11 years in the CET group (
