Giant right coronary artery aneurysm presenting as cardiac tamponade.
Article in Interactive cardiovascular and thoracic surgery, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Giant coronary artery aneurysms are rare and have variable presentations, which range from an incidental finding to sudden death. We report a case of a female presenting with chest pain and signs of cardiac tamponade who underwent a computed tomography (CT) pulmonary embolus protocol and was found to have haemopericardium with accumulation of contrast adjacent to the aorta. She underwent emergent sternotomy and was found to have a ruptured giant right coronary artery aneurysm, which was ligated and bypassed. This report highlights the difficulty of diagnosing a ruptured giant coronary artery aneurysm via CT and provides valuable information on an atypical presentation.
