Traumatic left main coronary artery dissection in a young adult following blunt chest trauma - A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Blunt chest trauma may cause variable degrees of thoracic injuries. Most of the patients may remain asymptomatic after sustaining blunt chest trauma. But in rare instances, life-threatening conditions such as coronary artery dissection may occur. The authors present a 29-year-old male adult with persistent chest pain following blunt trauma with a rise in cardiac troponins and elevated ST segment in ECG. Coronary CT and conventional angiography demonstrated dissection of the left main coronary artery. It is deemed necessary to suspect cardiac injury in patients with a history of blunt chest trauma in appropriate clinical settings. Early recognition of coronary artery dissection is vital to reduce morbidity and mortality. ECG combined with cardiac enzymes can be essential tools helping the physicians raise the suspicion towards a cardiac injury followed by cross-sectional and conventional angiographies for confirmation.
