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

Coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) is an uncommon coronary disease, with a reported incidence in adults ranging from 0.33 to 4.9%.It is usually considered a variant of coronary artery disease (CAD). CAA is associated with thrombus formation due to abnormal laminar flow, as well as abnormal platelet and endothelial-derived pathophysiologic factors within the CAA. CAA identified in the context of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) poses several unique management challenges. Optimal antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy is the mainstay of therapy. Percutaneous intervention for CAA is associated with complications including distal embolization of thrombus, no-reflow phenomenon, stent malposition, dissection, and rupture. There are currently no accepted guidelines to direct the management of CAA in patients presenting with ACS. Preference for conservative vs. surgical or catheter-based management is controversial. We review the literature and report different treatment strategies for two cases with both CAA and ACS.
