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

Middle aortic syndrome (MAS) is a rare atypical aortic coarctation (AC), often accompanied by refractory renal hypertension, which eventually leads to death from congestive heart failure, stroke or hypertensive encephalopathy. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) has unique advantages in assessing aortic stenosis and splanchnic artery abnormalities. Prompt aortic bypass surgery can relieve symptoms and improve quality of life. In this study, we report a patient with MAS diagnosed by CTA and follow-up after thoracoabdominal aortic bypass grafting.
