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 Disease is one of the leading causes of death in the world. CAD usually progresses slowly during time and patients with normal or near-normal coronary arteries are also at risk of developing CAD. It is now believed that even mild atherosclerosis can increase the rate of CAD.
methodsThis is a retrospective, descriptive and analytic study. We selected patients who had undergone at least two diagnostic coronary angiographies at Tehran Heart Center and had normal coronary structure or mild CAD in initial angiography. The data was obtained from the Tehran Heart Center Angiography Databank. Predicting factors in the development of CAD were determined.
resultsData on 556 patients were reviewed. The median interval between the initial and final coronary catheterization was 37.6 months. On the final evaluation, 216 patients (38.8%) found to have developed some degrees of coronary artery disease. Based on the multivariate analysis, age, hematocrit, cigarette smoking, hypertension, and initial presentation with stable and unstable angina were found to be independent predictors of progression to CAD in patients.
conclusionIn the end, 40% of patients who had normal coronary arteries or minimal CAD in the initial angiography report, developed some degrees of CAD and some clinical indices can predict the risk of CAD.
