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

backgroundThe aims of this study were to assess the perioperative morbidity, mortality and long-term survival of octogenarians undergoing acute type A aortic dissection repair (ATAAD), and to compare open and closed distal anastomosis techniques.

methodsThis was a single-centre retrospective study (2007-2021). Open versus closed distal anastomosis were compared. Uni- and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent predictors of in-hospital mortality. Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards methods were used to compare long-term survival.

resultsFifty octogenarian patients were included (median age-82 years; closed distal-22; open distal-28). Median cardiopulmonary bypass time was 187 min (open distal vs. closed distal group; 219 min vs. 115.5 min,

conclusionsATAAD repair in selected octogenarians has acceptable short- and long-term survival. There is no significant difference between open versus closed distal anastomosis strategies.
