Stanford Type A Aortic Dissection Masquerading as Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Case Report.
Article in Archives of academic emergency medicine, 2025. 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 (AD), a life-threatening cardiovascular emergency, is characterized by the separation of the aorta's inner and middle layers due to a tear in the intima. It is classified as Stanford type A or B based on the tear's location and extent. Symptoms vary but commonly include severe pain in the chest, back, or abdomen, along with atypical presentations such as shock, heart failure, or syncope. End-organ ischemia, including stroke and limb necrosis, may occur. Timely diagnosis and intervention are crucial for survival. Here, we report a 31-year-old male patient who presented with acute neurological symptoms, initially suspected of having a stroke, but was ultimately diagnosed with Stanford type A AD upon computed tomography (CT) angiography. This case underscores the importance of considering AD in the differential diagnosis of patients with neurological symptoms for accurate and prompt management.
