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 condition that leads to tearing of the coronary vessel wall in the absence of trauma, iatrogenic injury, or atherosclerosis. SCAD is an important cause of myocardial infarction in young women, leading to significant cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Within cohorts of women aged around 50 years on average, who experience acute coronary syndrome, the prevalence of SCAD is 22.5%- 35%. Over the past decade, SCAD research has expanded rapidly, leading to improved understanding of this condition. In this review, we provide a summary of the current body of knowledge, highlight areas of ongoing research, and identify existing knowledge gaps. Specifically, we provide a focused update on the pathogenesis of SCAD, including genetic and associated conditions, clinical presentation and diagnosis, prognosis, and short-term and long-term management. Highlighted areas include the following: insights from recent genome-wide association studies; intracoronary imaging for the diagnosis of SCAD; the role of cardiac computed tomography angiography to assess for vessel healing; revascularization strategies and challenges; cardiogenic shock in SCAD; and the increasingly recognized burden of anxiety, depression, and posttraumatic stress disorder among SCAD patients.
