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

Syncope as a manifestation of Takayasu arteritis is rare. We present a case of recurrent syncope in a 33-year-old woman. Clinical, laboratory, and imaging findings confirmed a new diagnosis of Takayasu arteritis. There was severe cerebrovascular involvement. Invasive angiography revealed vertebro-carotid artery collaterals causing a steal phenomenon. This resulted in vertebrobasilar insufficiency. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of syncope due to carotid steal syndrome in Takayasu arteritis.
