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

Background: The anomalous origin of the left circumflex artery from the pulmonary artery (ACXAPA) is a very rare coronary anomaly. Only a few cases have been reported until today, from incidental findings to autopsy reports after sudden cardiac death. Case summary: We report here for the first time the case of a man, previously monitored for asymptomatic left ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy, who presented with non-ST myocardial infarction and was diagnosed with ACXAPA. Complementary tests confirmed ischaemia in the corresponding territory, and the patient was referred to surgery for reimplantation of the circumflex artery. Discussion: Left ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy is a rare congenital cardiomyopathy whose association with coronary anomalies, not with ACXAPA, had previously been described until now. A related embryological origin could potentially explain this association. The management of a coronary anomaly should indicate dedicated multimodality cardiac imaging in order to not disregard the association with underlying cardiomyopathy.
