Assessment of extra-coronary peripheral arteriopathy in spontaneous coronary dissection: state of the art in non-invasive imaging techniques and future perspectives.
Review in European heart journal. Imaging methods and practice, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) has been recognized as an important cause of acute coronary syndrome in women ≤ 50 years old, and up to 43% of pregnancy-associated myocardial infarction. SCAD has a strong association with extra-coronary arteriopathies, including either more common entities such as dissections, intracranial or other aneurysms, and extra-coronary and coronary arterial tortuosity or less common inherited vascular disorders such as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Marfan syndrome, and Loeys-Dietz syndrome, leading to the conclusion that systemic arterial disorders may underlie SCAD. Fibromuscular dysplasia is the most common extra-coronary vascular abnormality identified among these patients, also sharing a common genetic variant with SCAD. The American Heart Association, in a scientific statement regarding the management of SCAD, recommends that patients with SCAD should undergo additional evaluation with imaging techniques including either computed tomography angiography (CTA) or magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). MRA has been shown to have sufficient diagnostic accuracy in identifying extra-coronary arterial abnormalities, almost equal to CTA and conventional angiography. The aim of this review is to appraise the most recent important evidence of extra-coronary arteriopathy in the setting of SCAD and to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of various non-invasive imaging methods for screening of extra-coronary arteriopathies in patients with SCAD.
