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

BACKGROUND Coronary-to-pulmonary artery fistulas are congenital coronary anomalies that are often incidentally found and no hemodynamic significance. They are abnormal vessels originating from the coronary artery and terminating into the pulmonary artery, with a tortuous pathway. However, coronary-pulmonary artery fistula associated with coronary artery aneurysm is a rare condition that can cause cardiac death. CASE REPORT A 55-year-old Thai woman diagnosed with traumatic aortic injury after being gored by a buffalo was incidentally found by computed tomography (CT) to have a coronary arteriovenous fistula with large aneurysm. One week after urgent thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR), she had a cardiac tamponade. Median sternotomy was performed for diagnosis and treatment. The final diagnosis was rupture of a large aneurysm of the coronary-pulmonary artery fistula (CPAF). No complications were found and the patient was discharged 2 weeks after surgery. CONCLUSIONS CPAF associated with rupture of a giant coronary aneurysm is a rare and life-threatening condition. Prompt diagnosis and emergency surgery are essential to treatment of these patients.
