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

Several studies have indicated that the fenestrated frozen elephant trunk (FET) technique enhances early outcomes in cases of acute aortic dissection, although long-term outcomes remain unclear. A case involving a 62-year-old male who experienced endoleak from a fenestration site following total arch replacement using the fenestrated FET technique for a DeBakey type I aortic dissection is reported. The patient underwent successful reoperation involving total arch replacement and reinsertion of the FET. Postoperatively, there was an absence of endoleak from the fenestration, and a noteworthy reduction in the diameter of the aortic arch was observed. It is imperative to recognize that endoleak from a fenestration poses a risk for prompt aortic expansion, thus necessitating vigilant postoperative monitoring. Furthermore, when adopting fenestrated FET, it is crucial to ensure firm fixation around the fenestration to prevent endoleak.
