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

Background: Mycotic pseudoaneurysm, also known as infectious pseudoaneurysm, is a severe disease with a high mortality rate. Although Salmonella infection is a common etiological factor for mycotic pseudoaneurysm, Salmonella paratyphi A infection causing mycotic pseudoaneurysm is extremely rare. Endovascular therapy has been described as a feasible treatment for mycotic pseudoaneurysm. Case Presentation: A 63-year-old female patient had a thoracic aortic pseudoaneurysm caused by Salmonella paratyphi A infection. The patient associated with diabetes had a fever, abdominal pain, and low back pain, who was successfully treated using endovascular stents treatment and antibiotics. Conclusion: Salmonella paratyphi A is a bloodstream infection bacterium with the ability to cause mycotic pseudoaneurysm. To treat mycotic pseudoaneurysms of the thoracic aorta, endovascular stent-graft treatment combined with antibiotics is an alternative treatment for patients who cannot tolerate open surgery.
