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

Aortic aneurysms (AA) are a common complication in patients with large-vessel vasculitis, such as chronic phase Takayasu arteritis, that often require surgical management to prevent a lethal rupture. Historically, mainstay of treatment for AA in the setting of arteritis was traditional open repair. However, in this case study an alternative surgical approach was devised to successfully treat an extent III thoracoabdominal AA in a patient with a diagnosis of Takayasu arteritis and a complex surgical history that made her high risk for an open surgical intervention. This case study summarizes a hybrid surgical approach that successfully excluded a thoracoabdominal AA and revascularized the superior mesenteric artery and left renal artery, by directly accessing the infrarenal aorta and using a bifurcated abdominal aortic endograft as a two-vessel branched device.
