Outcomes of Vascular Surgery Performed Jointly With Other Departments.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
objectiveThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the results of vascular surgery performed at our hospital, a tertiary emergency general hospital, in patients undergoing surgery in other departments. The results of the study were reviewed.
methodsThe study included cases in which cardiovascular surgery was performed at the request of other departments over a 15-year period from January 2006 to October 2022. Patient backgrounds, departments that requested surgery, surgical procedures, use of extracorporeal circulation, and surgical techniques were reviewed. Patients with femoral artery exposure or ECMO removal during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) requested by cardiology were excluded.
resultsThere were 58 vascular surgery cases requested by other departments during the study period. The age was 63±14 years, 43 (74%) were male and 15 (26%) were female. The departments of the patients were urology in 29 (50%), gastroenterology in 18 (31%), orthopedics in seven (12%), emergency department in three (5%), and obstetrics and gynecology in one (2%). The following surgical procedures were performed: tumor resection and reconstruction due to tumor invasion of the inferior vena cava in 27 cases (47%), bypass to secure intraperitoneal arterial blood flow in 15 cases (26%), bypass during resection of the femoral tumor in four cases (7%), hemostasis due to trauma in three cases (5%), intraperitoneal hemostasis in three cases (5%), thrombectomy in two cases (3%), and others in four cases (7%). Extracorporeal circulation was used in six (10%) of the patients.
conclusionA 15-year case study of vascular surgery supports operations requested by other departments at our hospital. All reconstructed sites were open at the time of discharge.
