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

BACKGROUND/

aimLeft ventricular aneurysms are complications following acute myocardial infarction. Left posterior left ventricular aneurysms occurring in a submitral position constitute a minor entity, and those leaving the mitral apparatus intact are extremely rare. CASE REPORT: Herein, we report the case of a 58-year-old patient with a past medical history of coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction with a giant left posterior left ventricular aneurysm with moderate mitral valve incompetence.

resultsThe patient underwent myocardial revascularization and, through a transaneurysmal approach, successful endoventricular pericardial patch wall reconstruction with no impact on mitral valve competence.

conclusionWhenever the mitral valve is not affected, a trans aneurysmal approach with endoventricular pericardial patch in association with myocardial revascularization represents a safe and reproducible approach with good functional outcomes.
