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

Non-traumatic or spontaneous dissection of the superficial femoral artery is an extremely rare entity, being more common in the external iliac artery in relation to intensive physical activity, pregnancy, among others. It has a variable clinical presentation. The diagnosis is made through angio-tomography (Angio-CT), angio-resonance (Angio-MR) and/or arteriography, the last one being diagnostic and therapeutic. The case of a 62-year-old female patient with a history of high blood pressure who consulted due to intense pain in the left lower limb is discussed. The diagnosis of dissection was made through arteriography and she underwent endovascular repair, showing favorable results.
