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

ObjectivesTo investigate the differences in aneurysmal sac regression after endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) in patients with and without dyslipidemia.MethodsThis was a retrospective analysis of 3453 patients from an international prospective registry (Europe, United States of America, Brazil, Australia, and New Zealand) of patients treated with the GORE® EXCLUDER® endograft. All scheduled EVARs for infrarenal AAAs between 2014 and 2016 with complete 6-year follow-up imaging data were included. Logistic regression analysis was performed to assess changes in aneurysm diameter based on dyslipidemia after adjusting for sex, age, body mass index, tobacco use, hypertension, coronary artery disease, aneurysm diameter, aneurysm neck length, and aneurysm neck angle. The secondary outcomes included all-cause mortality, stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA), paraplegia/paraparesis/spinal cord ischemia, reintervention, endoleaks, and aortic rupture. A control group of patients without dyslipidemia with similar age and comorbidities was selected using propensity scores and matched using a 1:1 scheme.ResultsOf the 3453 patients, 85.3% in the non-dyslipidemia group and 85.5% in the dyslipidemia group were men. The mean age was 73.5 ± 8.8 years for the non-dyslipidemia group and 73.4 ± 8.2 years for the dyslipidemia group (
