Anomalous Left Coronary Artery from the Pulmonary Artery: How to Diagnose and Treat.
Review in Journal of personalized medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers.
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
Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare coronary anomaly that can present in childhood or adulthood with a multitude of symptoms depending on the age of presentation. It should be suspected in infants presenting with heart failure in the setting of left ventricular systolic dysfunction and associated mitral regurgitation from papillary muscle ischemia. Adults with ALCAPA may present with cardiac ischemic symptoms. Prompt diagnosis with echocardiography and cross-sectional chest imaging is important to guide surgical intervention and improve the patients' survival and prognosis. The goal of surgery is to establish a dual-coronary system with mid-term results revealing progressive recovery of left ventricular function and improvement in mitral regurgitation. Patients with ALCAPA should maintain life-long follow-up with a cardiologist with congenital heart disease expertise for surveillance of post-operative complications.
