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 common femoral artery is a chief source of blood supply to the lower limb. Variations in its anatomy, like its absence, high level commencement of the deep femoral artery (DFA) with a superficial course, are unusual. The knowledge of such variations may have substantial clinical applications, specifically in vascular surgical procedures, catheterizations, and diagnostic or interventional radiology. CASE REPORT: During femoral triangle dissection of a 78-years female cadaver, absence of common femoral artery, commencement of DFA at the inguinal ligament level, following a superficial path contrary to its name was observed bilaterally. The exterior diameter of superficial and DFA were 5 mm, 4 mm and 6 mm, 4 mm respectively on the right and left side.

conclusionsAwareness of such variations is essential for interventional radiologists, vascular, orthopaedic, plastic & reconstructive surgeons to plan and execute interventional and surgical procedures effectively and for Anatomist for successful embalming.
