Clinical outcomes of a CT protocol for simultaneous examination of the aorta and coronary artery in patients with aortic aneurysm.

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
Objectives: In patients with aortic aneurysm (AA), coronary artery disease (CAD) increases the risk of perioperative complications and even asymptomatic CAD is associated with adverse clinical outcomes. We aimed to compare coronary-aorta CT (CACT) with thoracoabdominal CT angiography (Aorta CT) for CAD management and clinical outcomes in these patients. Methods: We enrolled 479 patients undergoing CACT and 693 patients undergoing Aorta CT as an initial CT scan for AA. The primary outcome was a composite of all-cause death or myocardial infarction (MI) at 3 years after CT. The secondary outcomes were subsequent CAD management and invasive coronary angiography (CAG). Results: After index CT scan, the CACT group had a significantly higher rate of coronary revascularization compared with the Aorta CT group (10.7% vs. 3.8%, Conclusion: Among patients with AA, CACT was associated with a higher rate of subsequent CAD management and a lower risk of all-cause death or MI compared to Aorta CT. When evaluating with AA using CT, simultaneous coronary and aortic evaluation using CACT would be recommended over Aorta CT.
