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
Background: This study aims to investigate the effect of large proximal aortic neck diameter on post-endovascular aneurysm repair clinical outcomes. Methods: A total of 180 patients (168 males, 12 females; mean age: 69.9±7.4 years; range, 46 to 88 years) who underwent elective endovascular aneurysm repair between June 2016 and September 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the proximal infrarenal aortic neck diameter, the patients were divided into two groups: Group 1 (<25 mm; normal aortic neck) and Group 2 (≥25 mm; pre-aneurysmatic aortic neck). Patient characteristics, proximal infrarenal aortic neck diameter measurements with computed tomography angiography, and clinical outcomes were recorded. The primary endpoint was to assess post-endovascular aneurysm repair aortic neck dilatation, mortality, endoleaks, overall survival, type 1a endoleaks-free survival, and eventfree survival regarding the groups. Results: There was no statistically significant difference in early mortality (p=0.55) and type 1a endoleak incidence between the groups (p=0.55). In Group 1, the mean change in diameter A (proximal infrarenal level) was 2.89±1.74 mm (p=0.01), and it was 2.31±2.1 mm in diameter B (proximal pre-aneurysm-sac level) (p=0.01). The mean change in Group 2 was 2.8±3.4 mm for diameter A (p<0.01) and 2.22±2.3 mm for diameter B (p<0.01). Aortic neck dilatation rates were similar between the groups (p=0.82 for diameter A; p=0.78 for diameter B). The five-year survival, event-free survival, and type 1a endoleak-free survival were also similar (p=0.54, p=0.26, p=0.24, respectively). Conclusion: Our study results showed that patients with <25 mm and ≥25-mm aortic neck diameters had similar mid-term results and aortic neck dilatation ratio. Endovascular aneurysm repair outcomes can be improved with careful patient and graft selection, and early intervention for complications.
