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

Background: Type I endoleaks (T1ELs) and type II endoleaks (T2ELs) are among the most severe complications that occur after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) and open surgery. This investigation aimed to analyze the predictors and multiple risk factors of T1ELs and T2ELs, with a particular focus on the diameter of the false lumen and the pathology of the left subclavian artery (LSA). Methods: A total of 245 patients (mean age 57 ± 13 years) who had undergone open surgery or TEVAR were recruited and followed for a mean of 18 ± 10 months. Seven patients (2.8%) were classified into the T1EL group, and another seven (2.8%) were classified into the T2EL group. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography angiography of the entire aorta confirmed the diagnosis of aortic disease (e.g., thoracic aortic dissection, thoracic aortic aneurysm, and/or type B intramural hematoma) as well as the presence of T1ELs or T2ELs. Results: Reoperation was more common in the T1EL group ( Conclusions: To prevent the occurrence of T1ELs and T2ELs, appropriate stent grafts and the pathology of the LSA should be carefully considered.
