Left Anterior Descending Artery to Pulmonary Artery Fistula: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
This case describes a 59-year-old patient who initially presented with symptoms consistent with stable angina and a subsequent diagnosis of non-ST elevation myocardial infarction with further conversion to an ST-elevation myocardial infarction. A left cardiac catheterization was scheduled to evaluate the patient's acute coronary syndrome. He later developed worsening chest pain and a repeat electrocardiogram (ECG) showed ST elevations in anterolateral leads. The patient was emergently transported to the cardiac catheterization lab. The coronary angiogram revealed a proximal left anterior descending artery (LAD) lesion. During the catheterization, abnormal communication between the LAD and the pulmonary artery was discovered and the patient was diagnosed with a coronary artery fistula. This case presents a unique scenario for an ST-elevation myocardial infarction with an incidental diagnosis of a coronary artery fistula.
