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

Acute iatrogenic aortic dissection following percutaneous coronary intervention is a rare but sinister cause of post-procedure morbidity and mortality. Delayed diagnosis increases the mortality significantly. We present a case of a 52-year-old male who presented with an iatrogenic aortic dissection following percutaneous coronary intervention for an inferior ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Although the diagnosis was initially missed by conventional imaging for a period of 5 months, it was later diagnosed assisted by cardiac computed tomography. The patient underwent aortic repair with a Dacron graft and had an uneventful recovery. The case highlights the importance of early diagnosis and selection of appropriate imaging for this rare but serious iatrogenic sequel following percutaneous coronary intervention to minimize morbidity.
