Coronary artery anomalies on preoperative cardiac CT in children with tetralogy of Fallot or Fallot type of double outlet right ventricle: comparison with surgical findings.

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
Coronary artery anomalies on preoperative cardiac CT have not been systematically compared with surgical findings in a large cohort of tetralogy of Fallot and Fallot type of double outlet right ventricle. This study was conducted to evaluate incidence and diagnostic accuracy of preoperative cardiac CT for identifying detailed coronary artery anatomy in these patients. Coronary artery anatomy on preoperative cardiac CT exams in 318 children with tetralogy of Fallot or Fallot type of double outlet right ventricle were reviewed and compared with surgical findings. Incidences of total and surgically critical coronary artery anomalies, concordance rate between cardiac CT and surgical findings, and diagnostic accuracy of cardiac CT were assessed. In addition, the types of surgical modifications for surgically critical coronary artery anomalies were reviewed. The incidences of total and surgically critical coronary artery anomalies were 8.5% (27/318) and 5.0% (16/318), respectively. The concordance rate between cardiac CT and surgical findings was 95.0% (302/318). The diagnostic accuracy of cardiac CT was 96.9% (308/318). In surgically significant coronary artery anomalies, tailored and careful right ventriculotomy was done in 13 cases, placement of a right ventricle-pulmonary artery conduit in two, and unroofing of the right coronary artery in one. Preoperative cardiac CT may be useful in identifying coronary artery anatomy in children with tetralogy of Fallot or Fallot type of double outlet right ventricle.
