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

Acute myocardial ischemia and infarction from retrograde dissection of the aortic root into the coronary ostia is a potentially fatal condition. Unrecognized type A aortic dissection at the time of angiography for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) carries a high burden of morbidity and mortality. Cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) has emerged as one of the instrumental tools in the diagnosis of retrograde coronary involvement from type A aortic dissections. We present a case of ACS secondary to retrograde aortic dissection extending into the right coronary artery (RCA) suspected during coronary angiography and confirmed by CCTA. The patient was managed surgically with aortic root replacement and coronary artery bypass grafting.
