Number and mortality of aortic surgery in Japan.
Review in Nagoya journal of medical science, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
According to the Japanese Association for Thoracic Surgery annual surgery survey, the number of aortic surgery has been increasing constantly in the last two decades, with the rates approximately doubling in each decade (5,167, 11,956, and 22,708 cases in 1999, 2009, and 2019, respectively). In 2019, aortic surgery was performed for 11,036 (49%) nondissecting unruptured aneurysm, 730 (3%) ruptured aneurysm, 6,351 (28%) acute type A aortic dissection, 1,412 (6%) chronic type A aortic dissection, 2,385 (11%) acute type B aortic dissection, and 703 (3%) chronic type B aortic dissection cases. The outcomes have been improving annually. From 1999 to 2019, the hospital mortality rates decreased significantly in each case: nondissecting unruptured aneurysm, 9.8% to 4.2%; ruptured aneurysm, 38.5% to 19.7%; acute type A aortic dissection, 18.7% to 10.4%; chronic type A aortic dissection, 7.2% to 4.5%; acute type B aortic dissection, 25.2% to 9.8%; and chronic type B aortic dissection, 7.5% to 3.4%. Furthermore, stent graft, a new technology developed in 1990, was performed in 35%, 53%, 1%, 21%, 62%, and 75% of cases mentioned above, respectively, in 2019. The widespread use of stent graft greatly contributed to the increased number of aortic surgeries and improvement of surgical outcomes.
