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

backgroundThe effect of anterior communicating artery (ACoA) patency on the flow velocity of the extracranial carotid arteries is unclear.

methodsA total of 285 patients with carotid artery stenosis were included between January 2019 and January 2021. All patients received unilateral carotid endarterectomy (CEA). The patients were classified into ACoA-patent (161) and ACoA-nonpatent (124) groups using digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and/or computed tomography angiography (CTA). The peak systolic velocity (PSV) and end-diastolic velocity (EDV) measured by carotid duplex ultrasonography (CDU) were compared between both groups, pre- and post-CEA.

resultsThere was no significant difference in the risk factors for cerebrovascular disease between the two groups. Within 1 week after CEA, the PSV and EDV on operative and nonoperative carotid (contralateral carotid in the same patient) arteries decreased significantly (both

conclusionsThe patent ACoA increases PSV and EDV, causing an overestimation of carotid artery stenosis.
