Adult-type anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery and right coronary-right atrial fistula: a case report.
Article in BMC cardiovascular disorders, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAnomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly, mortality rates in infancy reach approximately 90%, with only a small number of patients surviving into adulthood, therefore, most of the literature reports mainly focus on infantile type. CASE PRESENTATION: A 55-year-old female was admitted due to persistent repeated chest pain experienced and had worsened for unknown reasons. Color doppler echocardiography, coronary computed tomographic angiography, and coronary angiography confirmed the diagnosis of ALCAPA and concurrent right coronary artery-right atrial fistula. The symptoms of chest pain exhibited notable improvement subsequent to corrective surgery for the anomalous origin of the coronary artery.
conclusionsThis report shows an unique case of ALCAPA in an adult patient, characterizing the condition's combination with a right coronary-right atrial fistula, and it is prone to misdiagnosis and misdiagnosis. We aim to provide valuable insights for clinical diagnosis and treatment of ALCAPA.
