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

Anomalous coronary arteries are associated with sudden cardiac death, although only in a relatively small percentage. Although this has been a field of study for years and there are many ongoing studies of larger patient cohorts and longer term follow-up, important questions remain at present in clinical decision-making, particularly whether or not to have surgery. Advanced imaging techniques including coronary computed tomography (CT) and cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) play an important role in the workup of patients with known or suspected anomalies including delineating origin and course as well as defining presence of high-risk imaging features. Multidisciplinary decision-making is important when considering whether patients might need to undergo surgery. This review will describe types of anomalies, imaging techniques, and features as well as types of surgeries and postoperative imaging with highlights of imaging and surgical literature and several case examples.
