Covering the intercostal artery branching of the Adamkiewicz artery during endovascular aortic repair increases the risk of spinal cord ischemia.

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
Objectives: This study aimed to determine the relationship between covering the intercostal artery branching of the Adamkiewicz artery (ICA-AKA) and spinal cord ischemia (SCI) during thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). Methods: Patients who underwent TEVAR from 2008 to 2022 were enrolled. Stent grafts covered the ICA-AKA in 108 patients (covered AKA group) and stent grafts didn't cover the ICA-AKA in 114 patients (uncovered AKA group). The characteristics of 58 patients from each group were matched based on propensity scores. Results: No significant differences in SCI rates were detected between the covered AKA (10%; 11/108) and uncovered AKA (3.5%; 4/114) groups ( Conclusions: Covering the ICA-AKA was not an independent risk for SCI in TEVAR. However, covering the ICA-AKA was indirectly associated with the risk of SCI in patients with shaggy aorta, iliac access, and procedural time.
