Efficacy of thoracic endovascular aortic repair for aorto-esophageal fistula due to esophageal cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

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
Aorto-esophageal fistula (AEF) due to esophageal cancer (EC) is a life-threatening condition characterized by sudden hemorrhage, which often causes sudden death. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for AEF due to EC, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis. We searched the MEDLINE (PubMed) databases, the Cochrane Library databases, Ichushi-Web (the databases of the Japan Medical Abstract Society), and CiNii (Academic information search service of the National Institute of Information from Japan) from January 2000 to November 2023 for articles about TEVAR for an emergent aortic hemorrhage (salvage TEVAR [S-TEVAR]), and the prophylactic procedure (P-TEVAR). Six studies (140 cases) were eligible for meta-analysis. The 90-day mortality of S-TEVAR and P-TEVAR was 40% (95% CI 23-60, I
