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

objectiveAnalysis of gender-specific differences in short- and long-term outcome after elective open abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (OAR) regarding the distal anastomosis.

methodsIn this retrospective cohort study, data from 4853 patients of a German health insurance company undergoing OAR for infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) between 2010 and 2016 were analysed. The patients were followed through 2018.

resultsA total of 4050 (83.5%) men and 803 (16.6%) women underwent OAR. Women were older than men (72.9 ± 8.7 vs 69.8 ± 8.5 years;

conclusionIf possible, an aorto-aortic tube graft should be preferred to aorto-biiliac and aorto-bifemoral reconstructions in OAR. Patients selected for aorto-bifemoral artery reconstruction exhibit higher perioperative morbidity and mortality as well as worse long-term survival compared to patients selected for an intra-abdominal reconstruction. In the multivariate regression analysis, gender was not an independent risk factor for either short- or long-term outcomes.
