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

Objective: Strain has become a viable index for evaluating abdominal aortic aneurysm stability after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). In addition, literature has shown that healthy aortic tissue requires a degree of strain to maintain homeostasis. This has led to the hypothesis that too much strain reduction conferred by a high degree of graft oversizing is detrimental to the aneurysm neck in the seal zone of abdominal aortic aneurysms after EVAR. We investigated this in a laboratory experiment by examining the effects that graft oversizing has on the pressure-normalized strain ( Methods: Axisymmetric, 10% by mass polyvinyl alcohol phantoms were connected to a flow simulator. Ultrasound elastography was performed before and after implantation with the four different endografts: (1) 36 mm polyester/stainless steel, (2) 36 mm polyester/electropolished nitinol, (3) 35 mm polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)/nitinol, and (4) 36 mm nitinol/polyester/platinum-iridium. Five ultrasound cine loops were taken of each phantom-graft combination. They were analyzed over two different cardiac cycles (end-diastole to end-diastole), yielding a total of 10 maximum mean principal strain ( Results: Results from one-way analysis of variance showed a significant difference in Conclusions: This brief report suggests that a 10% increase in graft oversizing leads to an approximate 5.9% reduction in
