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

A 74-year-old Asian female patient with a history of hypertension and dyslipidemia presented with a subacute dry cough of one month duration. Chest radiography revealed mediastinal enlargement and contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a huge saccular aortic arch aneurysm compressing the left lung and protruding to the anterior chest wall. Open surgical intervention using a frozen elephant trunk was successfully performed to treat the aortic aneurysm, and the cough improved completely with aneurysm sac shrinkage six months postoperatively. This case report describes an uncommon presentation of thoracic aortic aneurysm and its outcomes following surgical intervention.
