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

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is increasingly being recognized as a cause of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This increased recognition of SCAD has been noted in patients with and without traditional cardiovascular risk factors such as diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, and cigarette smoking. The increasing incidence is believed to be due to recent advances in diagnostic and coronary imaging modalities. The most common presenting feature is chest pain or discomfort. Normal troponin level does not rule out SCAD as the definitive diagnosis is made on coronary angiography. Percutaneous intervention (PCI) for SCAD has been associated with lower success rates compared to PCI for atherosclerotic coronary artery disease. Medical management is, therefore, the initial treatment of choice.
