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

Thrombus formation on a well-conserved bicuspid aortic valve is rare. We encountered a patient with organized thrombus formation on a native bicuspid aortic valve without calcification or stenosis, which was found occasionally during an elective operation for ascending aorta replacement surgery. The location of the thrombus was just at the orifice of left coronary artery, which produced the atherosclerosis-like symptoms such like exertional chest tightness and dyspnea. And these are no apparent predisposing causes of thrombosis could be ascertained postoperatively. The patient is in excellent condition 6 months after the operation. The lesson we learned from our case is that when the patient's symptom can't correspond with his or her diagnosis, we should ask more questions, evaluate the patient thoroughly and make the differential diagnosis as possible as we can. And the surgery can be performed aggressively when patient's symptoms cannot be figured out by physical examination, not only for pathologic confirmation but also for the prevention of life-threatening complications that can caused by either condition.
