Walking on Collaterals: Unveiling Discrepancies in Gender-Based Variances in Peripheral Arterial Disease.
Article in Cureus, 2025. 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
A case of a 63-year-old woman with hypertension, chronic kidney disease, and osteoporosis who presented with acute coronary syndrome and new-onset heart failure. Angiography revealed a completely obstructed abdominal aorta, with no circulation to the femoral arteries and perfusion only through collateral vessels. This severe peripheral arterial disease (PAD) was diagnosed during her hospitalization, raising the question of why it had remained undiagnosed for years and whether earlier detection could have improved her outcome. Women with PAD often present with atypical or absent symptoms, leading to underdiagnosis. Early screening with the Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) is crucial for accurate diagnosis. Moreover, gaps in PAD recognition led to inadequate treatment of comorbidities, less aggressive pharmacologic therapies, and fewer revascularization strategies, resulting in poorer outcomes. This case highlights the unique risk factors and diagnostic challenges in women with PAD, which contribute to healthcare disparities.
