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

rationaleCoronary artery aneurysms (CAAs) are uncommon in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We describe the clinical features and outcomes of stent-assisted coil embolization of a CAA in the trigeminal position. PATIENT CONCERNS: We present a 73-year-old woman with a history of paroxysmal episodes of precordial pain since 1 year. Coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) revealed an aneurysm (diameter: 9 mm) at the junction of the distal left main coronary artery and the anterior descending branch. Troponin I, CK-MB, creatinine and routine blood investigations were within the normal range. DIAGNOSIS: Coronary artery aneurysm in the left main trigeminal position.

interventionsThe patient was treated with stent-assisted coil embolization. OUTCOMES: After complete filling of the aneurysm with coil, the microcatheter was withdrawn and the stent released in the descending branch. Two stents were successfully implanted. LESSONS: There is no clear consensus on the optimal therapy for patients with CAAs. Clinicians should be aware of the possible complications of stent-assisted coil embolization of CAA in the main trunk of the coronary artery.
