1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundIdiopathic isolated aneurysms in pediatric patients are rare and present significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges owing to their low incidence, small anatomical size, and the associated risks of injury to surrounding structures. Timely diagnosis and the selection of the most appropriate intervention require careful consideration. CASE PRESENTATION: An 11-year-old Persian boy presenting with abdominal pain for 2 months before admission was diagnosed with an isolated left internal iliac artery aneurysm through computed tomography imaging. He underwent open surgery for excision of the aneurysm. The iliac vein was adherent to the aneurysmal sac and significantly compressed, complicating the dissection and exploration. Nevertheless, proximal control was achieved, and the iliac vein was gradually separated and decompressed, allowing for the safe excision of the aneurysmal sac. The surgery was completed without intraoperative or postoperative complications.

conclusionSuccessful surgical intervention in pediatric patients with iliac artery aneurysms is achievable with careful planning and technique. This case report demonstrates the effectiveness of surgical management, with the patient remaining asymptomatic and showing no signs of recurrence during follow-up.
