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

Type II endoleak-like bleeding after open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair is extremely rare. We report a case of aneurysm sac re-expansion in a 71-year-old man 13 years after open AAA repair. The wrapped aneurysm expanded from 55 mm to 70 mm, with a computed tomography scan showing contrast medium inflow from the aneurysm wall. Reoperation revealed diffuse bleeding without discrete branch vessel hemorrhage. This case demonstrates that type II endoleak-like bleeding can occur as a late complication after open AAA repair, even without bleeding from the branch vessels, highlighting the importance of long-term surveillance.
