Circumferential tracheal replacement with silicone stent supported, cryopreserved aortic homograft.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2024. 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
Treatment of long-segment tracheal defects remains a challenge in thoracic surgery with no standard surgical option. Aortic allografts have been used for this purpose with varying degrees of success. In a patient that suffered anastomotic dehiscence after tracheal resection with primary anastomosis, we performed complete tracheal resection and replacement using a stented circumferential aortic allograft. Currently, this patient is able to breathe normally without tracheostomy assistance 22 months postoperatively. Our report is the first in the English literature of long-term survival without tracheostomy dependence and close interval follow-up after circumferential tracheal resection and replacement with a cryopreserved aortic allograft.
