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

Angiosarcoma arising in the aortic wall after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is an exceptionally rare but devastating complication. We report a case of a 76-year-old man who developed progressive systemic symptoms and persistent imaging abnormalities years after EVAR. Despite extensive workup and empirical treatment for graft infection and aortitis, diagnosis was delayed until biopsy revealed angiosarcoma. The clinical course was rapidly progressive and ultimately led to death. Atypical symptoms after EVAR should raise suspicions of malignancy. Early tissue diagnosis is essential for the timely recognition of this aggressive and frequently misdiagnosed entity, which often carries a poor prognosis.
