Anomalous Left Coronary Artery From The Pulmonary Artery (ALCAPA) as a Cause of Heart Failure.
Article in The American journal of case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
BACKGROUND Anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare anomaly. When present it can result in failure to thrive and congestive heart failure. CASE REPORT We present the case of a 6-month old female whose presentation was one of failure to thrive. Point of care ultrasound and electrocardiogram (ECG) were used to diagnose heart failure with consideration of ALCAPA. These tools helped to expedite transfer to a tertiary care center for definitive therapy. CONCLUSIONS Although a rare anomaly, ALCAPA induced heart failure can be quickly identified on bedside ultrasound. Together with ECG findings, the Emergency Physician can expedite the diagnosis and proper disposition.
