Endovascular approach for acute-on-chronic mesenteric ischemia: the holy grail for old and frail patients.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
Acute mesenteric ischemia is a rare but potentially fatal condition, with an estimated mortality rate of 80%. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial. While laparotomy and open revascularization have traditionally been the standard approach, endovascular techniques are emerging as viable alternatives. We report the case of a frail 76-year-old patient with an acute exacerbation of chronic mesenteric ischemia who underwent successful endovascular revascularization of the superior mesenteric artery with percutaneous thrombectomy, avoiding the need for laparotomy. This case illustrates that an endovascular-first approach can be a feasible option for selected patients, with close monitoring to ensure timely surgical revision if necessary.
