Next-Generation Frozen Elephant Trunk Technique in the Era of Precision Medicine.
Review in Journal of chest surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
The frozen elephant trunk (FET) technique can be applied to extensive aortic pathology, including lesions in the aortic arch and proximal descending thoracic aorta. FET is useful for tear-oriented surgery in dissections, managing malperfusion syndrome, and promoting positive aortic remodeling. Despite these benefits, complications such as distal stent-induced new entry and spinal cord ischemia can pose serious problems with the FET technique. To prevent these complications, careful sizing and planning of the FET are crucial. Additionally, since the FET technique involves total arch replacement, meticulous surgical skills are essential, particularly for young surgeons. In this article, we propose several techniques to simplify surgical procedures, which may lead to better outcomes for patients with extensive aortic pathology. In the era of precision medicine, the next-generation FET device could facilitate the treatment of complex aortic diseases through a patient-tailored approach.
