The Thoraflex hybrid approach using a zone 0 proximal landing site for first-stage elective treatment of a thoracoabdominal aneurysm.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
A 67-year-old woman was referred to the cardiothoracic outpatient clinic with a long-standing asymptomatic type 2 thoracoabdominal aneurysm. Her CT aorta showed extensive disease in the distal arch with no safe landing zone for total endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR). An acute bend preceding the descending aorta also made using a conventional elephant trunk challenging. A multi-disciplinary team decision was made to perform an aortic arch replacement using a frozen elephant trunk at zone 0. Utilizing a zone 0 approach in an elective case can result in quicker organ perfusion and successful TEVAR if necessary.
