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

Myocardial bridging is a rare anatomical variant that can lead to detrimental cardiac consequences when undiagnosed and untreated. This rare variant can induce anginal-type symptoms due to disrupted blood flow to the myocardium during systole. The patients presented in this report of two cases had previously undiagnosed myocardial bridging of the left anterior descending artery, however clinically, they presented quite differently. Here we present two cases discussing the course of diagnosis and treatment of myocardial bridging of these two patients. The goal of this case report is to highlight the significant cardiovascular injuries that can be a result of undiagnosed myocardial bridging.
