Clinical characteristics and impact of pseudo-lumen blood flow on long-term vessel dilatation in spontaneous isolated dissection of superior mesenteric/celiac artery.
Observational study in Heart and vessels, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
This study aimed to identify the clinical characteristics associated with spontaneous isolated dissection of superior mesenteric artery/celiac artery (SIDSMA/SIDCA). This observational study, conducted at Toranomon Hospital, Japan between 2009 and 2020, analyzed consecutive SIDSMA/SIDCA cases based on radiology data. The study compared clinical characteristics between symptomatic and asymptomatic patients with SIDSMA/SIDCA and investigated factors related to future vessel dilatation. Among 57 cases (44 SIDSMA, 17 SIDCA, and 4 both), the majority were male (87.7%), nearly half having hypertension (43.9%) and smokers (48.9%). Of those, 17 cases (29.8%) were symptomatic; abdominal pain (94.1%), back pain (23.5%), nausea (17.6%) and fever (5.9%). The symptomatic group was younger (52.6 ± 9.4 versus 67.2 ± 7.9 years, P < 0.001), had higher systolic and mean blood pressure (142.6 ± 20.0 versus 129.5 ± 16.5 mmHg, P = 0.017; 96.1 ± 14.6 versus 88.2 ± 17.7 mmHg, P = 0.038), a higher white blood cell count (9975 ± 5032 versus 6268 ± 1991 /µL, P = 0.012), and a higher LDL cholesterol level at diagnosis (129.7 ± 21.7 versus 87.2 ± 25.6 mg/dL, P = 0.002) than the asymptomatic group. The factors associated with future vessel dilatation included the presence of pseudo-lumen flow in the dissection vessel (73.9% versus 41.4%, p = 0.019) and a larger vessel diameter (13.5 ± 2.4 mm versus 11.5 ± 2.1 mm, p = 0.005) at diagnosis after multiple adjustments, pseudo-lumen flow was a predictor of future vessel dilatation (odds ratio, 4.80; 95% confidence interval, 1.11-20.75; p = 0.036). The study revealed that only 30% of SIDSMA/SIDCA cases were symptomatic. Symptomatic cases were generally younger and exhibited higher blood pressure and elevated white blood cell counts. These findings offer valuable insights for the acute diagnosis of SIDSMA/SIDCA.
