Clinical Characteristics of Patients with Takayasu Arteritis Undergoing Open or Endovascular Operations in China.
Article in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: The operation rate for different involved arteries and the manifestation of vessel involvement of patients with Takayasu arteritis undergoing open or endovascular operations remain unclear. We aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics, vessel involvement, angiographic classification and operations information in a large cohort of patients with Takayasu arteritis undergoing open or endovascular operations at a single centre in China. Methods: From January 2017 to October 2022, a total of 153 consecutive patients undergoing open or endovascular operations were recruited from the Department of Vascular Surgery of Beijing Hospital. The demographic characteristics, clinical presentations, pattern of vascular involvement and operation information were collected and analysed. Results: The majority of patients were female (128/153, 83.7%). The most common vascular finding was hypertension (66.7%). The subclavian (74.2%), carotid (70.1%) and renal (68.9%) arteries were the most commonly involved arteries. Type V (40.5%) was the most common angiographic classification pattern. A total of 296 open or endovascular operations were performed, including 73 percutaneous transluminal angioplasties (PTAs), 50 stent placements and 173 bypass graft operations. Patients with renal (83.3%) or carotid (65.2%) artery involvement had markedly higher rates of undergoing operations. Conclusions: The subclavian and carotid arteries, as well as the type V (40.5%) pattern, exhibited the highest frequency of involvement among patients with Takayasu arteritis who underwent open or endovascular operations. Variations in angiographic features can result in differences in clinical manifestations and significantly impact the possibility and modality of operations.
