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

Treatment of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm post aortic dissection is challenging and carries a significant risk of spinal cord ischemia. Open surgery allows reimplantation of intercostal arteries (ICAs), whereas conventional endovascular treatment cannot. We report a 46-year-old patient treated with a physician-modified endograft with posterior fenestrations to preserve perfusion of ICAs. The device was deployed in the true lumen to maintain sealing, with a large fenestration aligned to the target ICAs. Two custom-made false lumen endoprostheses were also placed in the false lumen. The postoperative course was uneventful, and 1-year imaging showed complete false lumen exclusion and positive aortic remodeling.
