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

Coronary anomalies are one of the most surprising yet challenging pediatric cardiology diagnoses. The anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ARCAPA) is frequently underdiagnosed due to a lack of typical signs or symptoms. We present a case of ARCAPA in a healthy six-month-old girl during follow-up of a newly detected heart murmur. Echocardiography raised the suspicion of a coronary anomaly, but the diagnosis was unclear, so cardiac catheterization and computed tomography were performed, which posteriorly confirmed the diagnosis. The patient underwent surgical repair, and the short-term follow-up has been uneventful. Regular monitoring is essential due to the potential long-term complications of ARCAPA, including myocardial ischemia, heart failure, and sudden cardiac death, underscoring the importance of early diagnosis and continuous management.
