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

introductionSingle coronary artery is a rare condition characterized by the origin of a coronary that supplies the entire heart from a single coronary ostium. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 45-year-old woman with an altered exercise testing was addressed to a computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) to rule out coronary artery disease (CAD). DIAGNOSIS: CTCA examination showed the absence of the right coronary artery (RCA). The left anterior descending artery and the left circumflex artery (LCX) presented regular origin and course and LCX provided the posterior interventricular artery and the posterolateral artery.

interventionsAs CTCA highlighted the absence of potentially life-threatening features related to coronary anomaly, no surgical treatment was advised. OUTCOMES: The patient was dismissed, kept under pharmacological control and monitored over time.

conclusionCTCA is the first-choice imaging modality in patients with ECG abnormalities properly allowing the differential diagnosis between CAD and congenital heart disease.
