A huge coronary artery aneurysm with ST-elevation myocardial infarction: A case report and review of literature.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Giant coronary artery aneurysms (GCAA), are rare findings often discovered incidentally in adults. GCAAs are defined by a significant enlargement of coronary arteries, posing a heightened risk of myocardial infarction and thrombosis. Case presentation: A 52-year-old male known case of ischemic heart disease (IHD), presented with chest pain and signs of anterior ST-elevation MI (STEMI). He had a history of MI six years ago and was on a medical regimen. Coronary angiography revealed a huge aneurysm (4.8∗8.2mm) in the left anterior descending artery (LAD) and ectasia in other arteries. Surgical management via coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) was pursued, successfully addressing the aneurysm. Conclusion: Recent advancements have improved our understanding and imaging capabilities for coronary artery aneurysms (CAAs). Treatment options include medical therapy, percutaneous coronary intervention, or surgery, with decisions tailored to individual cases. Standardized treatment protocols await clarification through further research, including randomized controlled trials.
