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

Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is the major cardiovascular manifestation of Marfan Syndrome (MFS), a connective tissue disorder caused by mutations in fibrillin-1. Aneurysmal dilation usually occurs in the ascending aorta (ASC) in MFS, but structural and mechanical changes are detectable throughout the arterial tree that may lead to dissection and rupture. Clinical management includes measuring ASC diameter and/or growth rate but does not typically include other regions of the thoracic aorta and dissection in the descending aorta (DSC) can occur after surgical replacement of the ASC. In severe forms of MFS, dilation forms concomitantly with aortic maturation, so it can be difficult to separate normal and pathologic changes in diameter. We used Fbn1
