Aortoiliac Occlusion in a Rare Instance of Leriche Syndrome Type I in a 65-Year-Old Woman With Chronic Leg Discomfort Refractory to Pregabalin.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Aortoiliac occlusive disease (AIOD), also known as Leriche syndrome, is a form of peripheral artery disease (PAD) that involves narrowing, and in severe cases, complete occlusion, of infrarenal abdominal aorta and/or iliac and femoropopliteal arteries. It classically presents as a triad of symptoms, i.e., leg pain, erectile dysfunction, and abnormally weak or absent femoral pulses. If untreated, it can progress to ischemia and gangrene of the affected regions of pelvis and lower extremities. Like any other PAD, AIOD is most commonly caused by atherosclerosis and usually occurs in strong association with severe cardiovascular diseases. Due to the rarity of this disease, its incidence and prevalence are still unknown making it harder to diagnose especially in patients without the classic risk factors and typical presentation. We report a case of AIOD in a 65-year-old woman who presented with atypical symptoms. She was diagnosed with AIOD type I upon further investigation, which was managed successfully.
