A Case Report and a Literature Review of Traumatic Abdominal Aortic Dissection: An Uncommon Complication Following Vertebral Fractures Due to Blunt Trauma.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Aortic dissection is a rare consequence of blunt trauma with potentially fatal consequences requiring prompt identification and management. The most common site for dissection or transection is the thoracic aorta due to anatomical fixation points. Current literature describes four cases of traumatic abdominal aortic dissection with intimal tear associated with vertebral fractures due to falling. We present a 30-year-old gentleman who attended following a fall from a first-floor window. Whole-body computerised tomographic imaging demonstrated superior endplate fractures of L1-L3 vertebral bodies and an acute infra-renal abdominal aortic dissection. He was transferred to the regional tertiary vascular centre and managed conservatively. Clinicians should be conscious of potential aortic dissection in trauma, especially where there is evidence of vertebral fractures. Imaging should be evaluated at the time to specifically exclude such injuries.
