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 artery anomalies are uncommon in the general population. The most frequently reported anomaly involving the circumflex artery is its origin from the right aortic sinus or the right coronary artery. However dual circumflex artery is an extremely rare anomaly. We report a case of a 79-year-old male patient who was admitted to our centre with a diagnosis of severe aortic stenosis, scheduled for transcatheter aortic valve implantation. Computed tomography angiography revealed dual circumflex arteries: one originating normally from usual bifurcation of the left main coronary artery and an accessory one arising separately from the left main coronary artery stem proximal to the bifurcation.
