Infectious aortic aneurysms: A case report and review of cases from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.
Article in IJID regions, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
An infectious aortic aneurysm is a rare disease entity. We report a challenging case of a 29-year-old male presenting with chest pain and constitutional symptoms. The patient was found to have three pseudoaneurysms of the aorta on imaging, significant pathological findings of necrotizing granulomatous lymphadenitis from a supraclavicular lymph node biopsy, and a highly suggestive clinical picture of tuberculous aortitis. He was referred to vascular surgery for intervention and discharged on antituberculous therapy for 6 months. To the best of our knowledge, only five cases of tuberculous aortic aneurysms have been reported from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, all with favorable outcomes. A high index of suspicion, early detection, and prompt intervention are essential in managing such cases.
