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

The incidence of lesions involving the left main coronary artery (LMCA) during coronary angiography is approximately 5% to 8%. It usually presents with acute coronary syndrome and can be fatal. Total occlusion of the LMCA is rare, often accompanied by myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock. We present an LMCA chronic total occlusion case in a 60-year-old female patient with chronic coronary syndrome. In our case, the LMCA was selectively visualized, and it was found to be occluded. The right coronary artery fed the entire left system through the collateral network. The patient had no risk of coronary artery disease other than hypertension. Successful coronary artery bypass grafting was performed without any complications.
