Aortic Dissection Complicated by Mesenteric Malperfusion Syndrome Presenting As Hepatic Ischemia: A Case Report and Literature Review.
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 (AD) is a medical emergency that occurs as a result of a compromise in the structural integrity of the aorta. If left untreated, AD can have severe consequences such as organ dysfunction or even death. Malperfusion syndrome is a major complication of aortic dissection with mesenteric malperfusion syndrome being a rare but devastating form that can lead to mesenteric ischemia and is associated with poor prognosis despite timely management. Here we report a case of a 31-year-old woman who was diagnosed with mesenteric ischemia secondary to incidental findings of aortic dissection whilst being investigated for ischemic hepatitis. She underwent emergency surgery to repair the aortic dissection but faced challenges due to unusual arterial vasculature. Despite best efforts, the patient's condition deteriorated, leading to severe brain injury. Management of aortic dissection complicated by mesenteric malperfusion remains a clinical challenge with high mortality rates and despite this, there is currently no definitive national guideline for the best management approach.
