Stanford A aortic dissection 40 years after aortic valve replacement with a Starr-Edwards caged-ball prosthesis: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
Stanford A aortic dissection is one of the most devastating acute medical conditions due to its high morbidity and mortality. We describe a 77-year-old male patient with a medical history of surgical aortic valve replacement with a still functioning Starr-Edwards caged-ball valve 40 years prior. The patient was promptly diagnosed with an ascending aortic aneurysm and dissection, and an emergency Bentall procedure in deep hypothermic circulatory arrest was performed. This is, to the best of our knowledge, the first Stanford A dissection case described in the literature in a patient with Starr-Edwards valve, and the longest still functioning caged-ball valve to have been replaced with the Bentall procedure. We also discuss the caged-ball valve's unfavorable hemodynamics as a potential predisposing factor of the dissection, as well as the patient's supposed initial bicuspid aortic valve disease which could also predispose to aortic aneurysm formation and dissection.
