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

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a non-atherosclerotic separation of the coronary artery wall with subsequent intramural hematoma (IMH) formation in the false lumen. It can be associated with or without an intimal tear. It is clinically divided into three types based on its angiographic appearance. Most SCAD cases are seen in young or middle-aged women, especially in a peripartum state. Additionally, SCAD patients usually have fewer cardiovascular risk factors and more commonly have predisposing conditions like fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD). Patients present with features of chest pain that radiates to the left arm or neck, shortness of breath (SOB), as well as nausea and vomiting. Coronary angiography is the most widely used first-line modality to diagnose this condition. Management is usually conservative; however, invasive procedures can be utilized for high-risk patients. We present a case of a 54-year-old woman with SCAD diagnosed using coronary angiography and treated conservatively with dual-antiplatelet therapy, culminating with resolution.
