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

A coronary artery aneurysm is defined as the dilation of a coronary artery segment that is 1.5-fold the diameter of the neighboring normal segments. A patient with a history of aortic valve replacement and coronary artery bypass graft surgery, transthoracic echocardiography revealed a large mass with an echolucent center in the left atrioventricular groove. Transesophageal echocardiography showed that the left atrial appendage was free of thrombosis, and there was a mass with an echolucent center beneath the left atrial appendage, suggestive of aneurysmal dilation in the left circumflex artery with thrombosis formation Coronary artery computed tomography angiography confirmed this finding. In patients with or without a history of coronary aneurysms, the presence of a mass in the atrioventricular groove on echocardiography should alert clinicians about the presence of a coronary artery aneurysm with thrombosis formation as a probable etiology.
