Early Diagnosis of an Atypical Type A Aortic Dissection With Point-of-Care Ultrasound: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 but potentially fatal condition, characterized by a high mortality rate where every minute of delay in treatment counts. Its diagnosis remains challenging due to its often atypical clinical presentation. This case report presents an atypical case of type A aortic dissection in a 75-year-old female patient, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis facilitated by point-of-care ultrasound and emphasizing the value of its use in suspected aortic dissection regardless of the clinical probability. Additionally, this report reviews the risk factors for misdiagnosis and underscores the utility of diagnostic scores such as the aortic dissection detection risk score.
