Endovascular Management of Leriche Syndrome in a 76-Year-Old Woman: 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
Aortoiliac occlusive disease (AIOD), or Leriche syndrome, is caused by atherosclerotic stenosis or occlusion of the infrarenal aorta and iliac arteries. It may present with claudication, rest pain, and absent femoral pulses. We report the case of a 76-year-old woman with hypertension and a history of smoking who presented with bilateral lower limb claudication and rest pain. Imaging revealed a high-grade infrarenal aortic stenosis consistent with a TransAtlantic Inter-Society Consensus II (TASC II) type D lesion. She underwent successful endovascular treatment via right femoral access, consisting of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty followed by implantation of an E-Luminexx™ Stent 12×40 mm (Becton Dickinson, New Jersey, USA). Post-operative recovery was uneventful, with improved distal perfusion and normalization of ankle-brachial index values. Follow-up imaging at three months confirmed stent patency. This case illustrates that endovascular management is a safe and effective alternative to open surgery for selected patients with complex AIOD, especially in elderly individuals with comorbidities.
