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

introductionType A aortic dissections are pathologies with high mortality rates. Although ascending aortic aneurysms are typically planned for elective surgery, they are significant conditions in cardiovascular surgery due to their potential to cause type A aortic dissection. This study, which is the first to examine sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) in human ascending aortic tissues, aims to elucidate the relationship between ascending aortic pathologies and the SIRT1 protein.

methodsA case-control study was conducted using aortic tissues and demographic data from patients who underwent surgery for ascending aortic aneurysm and type A aortic dissection. Coronary artery bypass patients were selected as the control group. The groups were compared in terms of SIRT1 levels.

resultsThe study included a total of 46 patients (16 in the aneurysm group, 14 in the dissection group, and 16 in the control group). The SIRT1 protein level was the highest in the ascending aortic aneurysm group (214, interquartile range [IQR] 79 - 270), followed by the dissection group (172, IQR 148 - 224), and the lowest in the control group (104, IQR 78 - 123) (P = 0.014). SIRT1 level was found to be low in patients with coronary artery disease (P = 0.001), peripheral artery disease (P = 0.008), and hypertension (P = 0.023).

conclusionsType A aortic dissections are associated with elevated SIRT1 levels in the tissue. Systemic atherosclerotic diseases, such as coronary and peripheral artery diseases, are associated with decreased SIRT1 levels. There is also a relationship between hypertension and sirtuin1 levels.
