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

Inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) aneurysms account for approximately 1% of visceral artery aneurysms and can occur secondary to high flow because of occlusive disease in other mesenteric arteries. We describe the case of a 79-year-old man who presented with a 3.3-cm IMA aneurysm and chronic total occlusions of the celiac artery and superior mesenteric artery (SMA). After an unsuccessful attempt at endovascular SMA recanalization, he underwent an uncomplicated retrograde aorta to SMA bypass and antegrade aorta to IMA bypass. We propose that an aorta to IMA bypass after SMA revascularization is safe and effective to treat suspected high-flow IMA aneurysms.
