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

Coronary artery anomalies may occur during embryogenesis and can lead to changes in the vascularization of the heart, possible ischemia, and an increased risk of sudden death. A retrospective study was conducted with the aim of assessing the prevalence of coronary anomalies in a Romanian sample of patients, investigated with computed tomography angiography for coronary artery disease. The objectives of the study were to identify the anomalies of the coronary arteries and to conduct an anatomical classification according to Angelini. The study also consisted of evaluations regarding coronary artery calcification in the sample of patients by the Agatston calcium score and assessments regarding the presence of cardiac symptoms and their association with coronary abnormalities. The results showed a prevalence of coronary anomalies of 8.7%, of which 3.8% were origin and course anomalies and 4.9% were coronary anomalies with intramuscular bridging of the left anterior descending artery. Recommendations for practice include the widespread use of coronary computed tomography angiography for the diagnosis of coronary artery anomalies and coronary artery disease in larger patient groups and encouraging this investigation across the country.
