Chronic Type B Aortic Dissection With Aneurysmal Dilatation Presenting With Recurrent Seizures: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Aortic aneurysms can remain asymptomatic or present with complications, including aortic dissection. Aortic dissection itself may manifest with a wide spectrum of signs and symptoms, which can make diagnosis challenging. A 63-year-old man is discussed in this article, who presented with episodes of seizure. He had a history of type B aortic dissection being treated medically. Chest computed tomography (CT) scan showed a 10 cm aortic aneurysm and dissection. He was admitted to the coronary care unit and underwent thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). His postoperative course was uneventful, and he was discharged home in stable condition. One of the most important but easy-to-miss diagnoses to consider in patients with neurological symptoms is aortic dissection. Depending on the type and severity, and chronicity of the disease, different management plans can be considered. TEVAR is one of the new techniques in treating this condition.
