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
objectiveTo assess the feasibility and early outcomes of single-stage hybrid revascularization consisting of common femoral endarterectomy with pericardial patch angioplasty and endovascular recanalization of the ipsilateral iliac arteries in patients with combined femoroiliac occlusive disease.
methodsBetween January 2022 and October 2025, consecutive patients with multilevel iliofemoral peripheral artery disease (PAD) who underwent simultaneous single-stage hybrid revascularization at our institution were retrospectively analyzed. The hybrid strategy comprised common femoral endarterectomy with bovine pericardial patch angioplasty and intraoperative angiography-guided endovascular recanalization of the ipsilateral iliac arteries using balloon angioplasty with or without stent implantation; wire-guided iliac embolectomy was performed when indicated. Preoperative assessment included computed tomography angiography (1-mm slice thickness) and color-coded duplex ultrasonography. Patients were followed for at least three months with clinical assessment and duplex ultrasound. The primary endpoint was primary technical success of the planned hybrid procedure. Secondary endpoints included postoperative complications, length of hospital stay, three-month iliac stent patency, mortality, and amputation-free survival.
resultsTwenty-eight patients were available for analysis. The median age was 73 (IQR: 14.5) years, and 64.3% were male. Most patients presented with advanced disease (Fontaine III-IV, 85.8%), and 60.7% had rest pain. Primary technical success was achieved in 85.7%. Bailout femorofemoral crossover bypass was required in 10.7%, and staged endovascular completion was planned in one patient. Iliac stenting was performed in 67.9%; wire-guided iliac embolectomy achieved thrombus extraction in 78.6% of attempted cases. The median length of stay was 10.5 (IQR:7) 13.4 days. Wound-healing disorders occurred in 7.1%. At three months, iliac stent patency was 100% and mortality was 0%. Amputation-free survival was 82.1%, with minor and major amputations in 10.7% and 7.1%, respectively.
conclusionSingle-stage hybrid revascularization for femoroiliac occlusive disease in patients with advanced PAD was feasible and was associated with favorable early outcomes. Larger prospective studies with longer follow-up are needed to confirm durability and comparative effectiveness.
