Hitting the Target in Abdominal Aortic Coarctation.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 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
backgroundAbdominal aortic coarctation (AAC) is a rare cause of severe hypertension in adolescents and is often associated with Takayasu arteritis. CASE SUMMARY: We present a case of a 15-year-old boy with a 4-month history of progressive dyspnea and easy fatiguability. He was found to have severe systemic hypertension, radiofemoral delay, and a significantly higher upper limb blood pressure (BP) compared with lower limb BP. Computed tomography aortography demonstrated severe AAC. He underwent successful endovascular intervention with stenting of the abdominal aorta. Hypertension and symptoms resolved immediately postintervention. DISCUSSION: AAC may occur as a congenital anomaly or secondary to inflammatory conditions such as Takayasu arteritis, particularly in young individuals with severe hypertension. This case underscores the value of physical examination and imaging in the evaluation of a young patient with hypertension. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE: Severe hypertension with radiofemoral delay and an upper-to-lower limb BP gradient >20 mm Hg prompted evaluation for AAC.
