Conservative Management of Aberrant Right Subclavian Artery (Arteria Lusoria): A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The most common embryological aortic arch abnormality is the aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA), also known as arteria lusoria or dysphagia lusoria. Arteria lusoria is commonly associated with vascular anomalies, including truncus bicaroticus, right-sided aortic arch, and Kommerell's diverticulum (KD), predisposing to complications like acute aortic syndrome. Surgical intervention is usually reserved for symptomatic patients with compressive and/or hemodynamic alterations. However, there is no consensus on its clinical management and subsequent follow-up. Here, we present the case of a 71-year-old symptomatic elderly female with arteria lusoria who was managed conservatively. We believe conservative management is a viable option, especially in elderly patients, which should be supported with regular surveillance to detect any complications that necessitate surgical intervention.
