A novel off-the-shelf solution for the treatment of retrograde false lumen flow causing hemothorax after thoracic endovascular aortic repair for aortic dissection and rupture.

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
Persistent retrograde false lumen (FL) flow is a common complication following thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for type B aortic dissections. The candy plug technique is a well-established method for FL exclusion; however, device availability can be a limiting factor. We report the case of a 57-year-old man who underwent a novel FL exclusion procedure 2 days post-TEVAR, using a 36 × 66 mm Cook Converter graft and Amplatzer plugs, with complete FL thrombosis and resolution of hemothorax on imaging 7 weeks postoperatively. This off-label technique offers a viable alternative when commercially available candy plug devices are unavailable and urgent intervention is required.
