Aortic Dimensions in a South Asian Population: Establishing Normative Data and Implications for Clinical Practice.

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
Diameter of the aorta is a significant contributor and predictor for complications and a fundamental parameter for intervention. It is recognized that age, sex, and ethnicity play a role in aortic size. We thus sought to determine the normal dimensions among our population.A retrospective analysis of images was done of all polytrauma patients admitted between January 2018 and December 2022 who underwent protocolized noncontrast computed tomography of the chest and abdomen to measure the aortic diameter at established reference points.There were 513 patients; the mean age was 36.5 ± 14.6 (range: 18-86), and 382 (74.5%) were males. Aortic dimensions at sinus, mid-ascending, arch, descending, suprarenal, and infrarenal aorta were 30.7 ± 3.8, 29.3 ± 4.5, 24.9 ± 3.3, 20.1 ± 3.0, 19.4 ± 2.9, and 15.3 ± 2.2, respectively. Age demonstrated a positive correlation to the diameter at the ascending, descending, and infrarenal aorta (
