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

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and short-term outcomes of carotid bifurcation reconstruction, a modified carotid endarterectomy (CEA) technique for complex carotid lesions, by comparing it with conventional CEA with patch angioplasty. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on patients who underwent carotid revascularization at our institution between September 2023 and November 2025. Patients receiving carotid bifurcation reconstruction surgery were assigned to the observation group ( Results: A total of 54 patients were enrolled, with no significant differences in baseline demographic and clinical characteristics between the two groups (all Conclusion: Carotid bifurcation reconstruction may be a feasible modified CEA technique for selected patients with complex carotid lesions.
