Long-Term Outcomes of Conservative Versus Invasive Approach of Coronary Aneurysm.
Article in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Introduction: Up to date, the management of coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) is not well defined and depends on local heart team decision. Data reported in literature are scarce and controversial. We aim to compare the long-term outcomes of different therapeutic strategies of CAA (medical vs percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) vs coronary artery bypass graft(CABG)). Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 100 consecutive patients who underwent coronary angiography at Toulouse University Hospital, Toulouse France and fulfilled the diagnostic criteria of CAA. Coronary angiograms were reviewed, and all necessary data were collected. CAA was defined by a coronary dilation exceedingly at least 50% of reference coronary diameter. Results: We identified 100 patients with CAA with a mean age of 67.9 Conclusions: In our retrospective observational study, there seems to be no significant differences in MACCE-free survival between all groups (Medical vs PCI vs CABG). Larger longitudinal aneurysm diameter was identified as a predictor of poor prognosis during follow-up.
