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

Lerich syndrome, also known as aorto-iliac obliteration syndrome, is a specific entity among obliterative arteriopathies of the lower limbs, is defined as thrombotic occlusion of the aorto-iliac junction. We report a case of 60-yearold patient, chronic smoker with hypertension disease. He was admitted for an assessment of renal failure, in whom the diagnosis of chronic kidney disease was confirmed. Moreover, in the presence of renal asymmetry (4,9 cm) on renal ultrasound, a CT angiography was requested, confirming the diagnosis of Lerich syndrome with renal artery stenosis. A complementary assessment, including etiological one was performed, revealing no abnormalities. Therapeutically, the patient was placed on intermittent hemodialysis and curative anticoagulation. Our case represents a rare and fortuitous discovery of Lerich syndrome.
