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

Successful revascularization and restoration of blood flow to one of the pedal arteries is the mainstay to prevent major limb amputation. Here, we report a rare case of successful bypass to the inframalleolar ankle collateral artery in a middle-aged female with rheumatoid arthritis presenting with gangrene of the toes of the left foot. A computed tomography angiography (CTA) demonstrated normal infrarenal aorta, common iliac, external iliac, and common femoral arteries on the left side. The left superficial femoral, popliteal, tibial, and peroneal arteries were occluded. Extensive collateralization was noted in the left thigh and leg, with distal reformation in large ankle collateral. A successful bypass was done using from the common femoral artery to the ankle collateral using the great saphenous vein harvested from the same limb. At a one-year follow-up, the patient was symptom-free, and a CTA showed a patent bypass graft.
