Total Arch Replacement with a New Hybrid Device to Manage the Left Subclavian Artery in the Frozen Elephant Trunk Technique.
Article in Interdisciplinary cardiovascular and thoracic surgery, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesTotal arch replacement using the frozen elephant trunk technique remains the gold standard for a definite aortic arch repair. To facilitate surgical management of the left subclavian artery (LSA), a new hybrid frozen elephant trunk device was recently developed.
methodsA 62-year-old female patient presented with acute type A aortic dissection and underwent emergent aortic root and total arch replacement using the novel custom-made Evita Neo EDE hybrid arch device for frozen elephant trunk implantation. To facilitate the management of the LSA, a covered stent connected to the device was inserted into the LSA via guidewire prior to performing the distal anastomosis in zone two.
resultsPostoperative computed tomographic angiography demonstrated excellent outcome and technical success with no signs of endoleak or device-related complications. The patient was discharged home 11 days after surgery in a stable clinical condition.
conclusionsThe new Neo EDE hybrid arch device for frozen elephant trunk implantation is easy to use and simplifies surgical management of the LSA without adding technical complexity.
