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 A aortic dissection is the most common aortic catastrophe posing challenges for endovascular repair owing to the fragile aortic wall, proximity to the aortic valve, coronaries, and supra-aortic trunks. While open surgical repair remains the gold standard, endovascular repair is considered in select high-risk patients who meet anatomical criteria, including more than 10 mm length between sinotubular junction to primary tear, aortic diameter of less than 40 mm, and suitable length between sinotubular junction and innominate artery. This illustrated video and case presentation address a modified technique using stent graft flaring of the innominate artery to adjust for length mismatch in the ascending aorta.
