Giant coronary artery fistula complicated with coronary artery aneurysm and acute myocardial infarction: a case report.
Article in BMC cardiovascular disorders, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundCoronary artery fistula (CAF) is an abnormal connection between a coronary artery and either a cardiac chamber or the great vessels. Although most patients are asymptomatic, potential complications such as heart failure, angina pectoris or acute myocardial infarction can be fatal. CASE PRESENTATION: We present here a 62-year-old man diagnosed with giant coronary artery fistula complicated with gross coronary artery aneurysm and acute myocardial infarction. He underwent intravenous thrombolysis treatment at a local hospital, coronary angiography at a regional hospital and complex surgery at a national centre for cardiovascular disease. The patient had no major adverse cardiac events during the 3-year follow-up.
conclusionEarly diagnosis of CAF patients and an appropriate treatment plan are the key factors for avoiding serious complications. Because of the rare incidence of this disease, it is necessary to discover and discuss management strategies, including medical management, percutaneous interventions or surgical treatment, for a successful outcome.
