Aberrant right coronary artery in an elderly Nigerian with recent dyspnoea detected on coronary CT angiogram.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
An anomalous origin of the right coronary artery has been documented in up to 0.92% of the general population, which is more common than an anomalous origin of the left coronary artery. We present a case of an elderly hypertensive man who developed mild dyspnoea on exertion for 3 months with associated retro-sternal pain as well as occasional palpitation which all tend to subside at rest. An electrocardiogram showed evidence of left atrial enlargement. A coronary computed tomographic angiogram was acquired with a 160-slice scanner which revealed the right coronary artery to originate from the left aortic sinus with a retro-aortic pattern of anatomical course. Vascular wall calcifications were noted with multilevel luminal narrowing on the left anterior descending however distal opacification was adequate. Our case further depicts the reason for keeping in mind anatomical variations while evaluating cardiac pathologies even among Black Africans.
