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

Acute aortic occlusions (AAOs) are rare vascular emergencies associated with high morbidity and mortality. Presenting signs and symptoms vary but typically involve the lower extremities and include mottled skin with diminished pedal pulses, paresis, and severe pain. Prompt recognition and imaging are necessary to prevent rapid deterioration, which can lead to loss of limb or death. Treatment includes surgical or endovascular interventions based on patient-associated risk factors and clot location. We present a 76-year-old female who arrived at the emergency department with an AAO involving the infrarenal abdominal aorta and bilateral common iliac arteries. Efficient physical examination and utilization of computed tomography with angiography of the abdomen and pelvis allowed for the appropriate recognition of the AAO and subsequent successful surgical embolectomy. This case report underscores the importance of an expeditious clinical and radiographic evaluation in patients presenting with lower extremity pain and weakness.
