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

Popliteal artery aneurysms may be divided into true and false aneurysms (pseudoaneurysms). We present a case of a right popliteal pseudoaneurysm. A 67-year-old male presented to the hospital with significant pain in the right calf. A peripheral angiogram revealed extensive stent thrombosis in the right lower extremity. A thrombectomy and balloon angioplasty were done to reestablish blood flow. 2 weeks later the patient presented after a driving trip, with a peripheral angiogram revealing a popliteal pseudoaneurysm. Vascular intervention was performed, replacing the right popliteal artery with a 6 mm polytetrafluoroethylene graft. There is a high degree of suspicion for mechanical stress injury from prolonged knee flexion. The etiology of the pseudoaneurysm was most likely from mechanical stress, despite its historical association with true aneurysms. Although differentiating between true and false aneurysms is important in determining etiology, these are not all-inclusive and overlap of causation may occur.
