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

backgroundCases of abdominal aortic aneurysm discovered as purpura on the extremities with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) are rare. The number of currently established strategies for the control of DIC with aortic aneurysm is limited. CASE PRESENTATION: An 85-year-old woman was referred to the hematology department because of purpura on her shoulder and thigh. Enhanced fibrinolytic-type DIC was diagnosed by a blood test. Enhanced computed tomography (CT) revealed 60-mm abdominal aortic and 42-mm right common iliac aneurysms. We performed endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) and coiling of the right internal iliac artery with postoperative administration of Nafamostat mesylate. The patient promptly recovered from DIC, and the purpura gradually disappeared.

conclusionsWe safely performed EVAR with postoperative administration of Nafamostat mesylate for an abdominal aortic aneurysms that presented as symptomatic DIC.
