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

We present a novel, fully endovascular technique for subacute complicated type B aortic dissection, combining the Castor single-branched endograft with the stent-assisted balloon-induced intimal disruption and relamination in aortic dissection repair method to achieve zone 2 sealing, left subclavian artery preservation, and complete aortic remodeling. This standardized, anatomically tailored strategy avoids hybrid procedures and enhances procedural reproducibility. We applied this approach in three patients with complex anatomies, all treated successfully without complications or reinterventions. Our experience supports the safety and effectiveness of this technique, offering a promising alternative for the management of complicated type B aortic dissection during the subacute phase.
