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

In challenging anatomy and large aneurysms, cannulation of the contralateral gate may be time-consuming and sometimes requires crossover approach with a snare. At Helsinki University Hospital, we have since 2016 used the so-called side-rail technique. This technique is described in detail in this paper including video material on the performance of the procedure. We have found this simple technique to be time and radiation sparing, and we now use it routinely in most endovascular aortic repair procedures.
