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

Mesenteric malperfusion in acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) carries extremely high mortality. A 53-year-old woman presented with ATAAD and mesenteric malperfusion and was deemed to be at prohibitive risk for central repair. An endovascular-first approach was used to treat visceral malperfusion before central repair. Thermal septotomy was performed to create a proximal landing zone in the descending thoracic aorta, allowing full expansion of thoracic endovascular aortic repair and mitigating the risk of retrograde false lumen pressurization. The distal landing zone in the true lumen provided rapid expansion and visceral reperfusion. Thermal septotomy-assisted thoracic endovascular aortic repair can bridge to central repair in select high-risk patients with ATAAD and mesenteric malperfusion.
