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

This case report details a percutaneous transmural arterial bypass for a long (20-25 cm) occlusive lesion causing intermittent rest pain in a patient with multiple comorbid conditions. Initial lower extremity intervention was without complication; however, 1 month postoperatively, the patient presented acutely with severe rest pain, a diminished ankle-brachial index of 0.35, and a swollen extremity. Computed tomography angiography findings demonstrated component separation, which was subsequently repaired with placement of a covered stent. Symptoms immediately improved, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day one. This case report illustrates methods of managing the unusual complication of component separation, which presented as acute limb ischemia.
