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

Chronic peri-aortic inflammation after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is rare and may reflect sterile postoperative inflammation, immune-mediated periaortitis, or graft-associated infection. Differentiating between these entities is challenging but essential for appropriate management. An 84-year-old male with prior infrarenal EVAR in 2005 presented with persistent inflammation and peri-aortic fluid collection, initially considered immune-mediated periaortitis based on a partial response to corticosteroids. Computed tomography (CT) showed progressive enlargement of the lesion, and contrast-enhanced ultrasound demonstrated early arterial enhancement within it, supporting an active inflammatory process. Two CT-guided peri-aortic sampling yielded
