Successful endovascular treatment of a symptomatic ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm with a modified candy plug technique.
Article in Journal of vascular surgery cases and innovative techniques, 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
Ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm (AAP) is a rare but morbid complication after cardiac surgery. Endovascular repair can be considered for high-risk surgical candidates with suitable anatomy. We present the case of a 54-year-old man with a history of multiple previous aortic surgeries who developed a recurrent, symptomatic AAP, which was successfully treated with a novel endovascular repair using a modified candy plug technique. The procedure involved deploying a covered stent across the pseudoaneurysm orifice, followed by intraluminal occlusion with Amplatzer vascular plugs. This modified candy plug technique provides an innovative alternative therapy for treating AAP in patients with high surgical risk. The patient provided informed consent for the publication of this case report.
