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

Common carotid artery occlusion (CCAO) is a rare condition without standardized treatment, particularly in cases with long, calcified occlusions. We present a 56-year-old man with symptomatic left CCAO (Riles type 1A) treated with a hybrid surgical-endovascular approach due to limited bypass options. Although a guidewire crossed the lesion, device advancement was prevented by dense plaque. Through cervical exposure, the distal wire was grasped and traction applied, allowing balloon angioplasty and stent placement. Complete revascularization was achieved without complications. This case highlights the effectiveness of hybrid strategies for managing complex CCAO with challenging anatomical features.
