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

Objective: To compare the outcomes between total arch replacement (TAR) and nontotal arch replacement (non-TAR) in patients with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD). Methods: Between 2006 and 2018, 275 ATAAD patients were divided into 2 groups, the TAR group ( Results: The TAR patients were older than the non-TAR patients (61.5 ± 11.8 vs. 57.4 ± 14.5 years, Conclusion: The mortality rates in ATAAD patients with TAR and non-TAR were similar. However, the incidence of new permanent postoperative neurological deficit was significantly higher, and the length of hospital stay was longer in patients with TAR. TAR in ATAAD should be avoided especially in patients who have experienced preoperative CPR to abate risk of PND.
