Single coronary artery complicated with type A aortic dissection: a case report.
Article in General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery cases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Congenital coronary artery anomalies complicated with aortic dissection are rare. We experienced a patient with a single coronary artery presenting with a type A dissecting aortic aneurysm. A 77-year-old woman who experienced sudden back pain and was diagnosed with type A acute aortic dissection was initially treated conservatively because the false lumen thrombosed entirely. Computed tomography taken during 5 weeks of hospitalization incidentally revealed an anomalous single coronary artery arising from the left sinus of Valsalva, and the right coronary artery orifice was absent. One month after being transferred to another institution for rehabilitation, she was reintroduced to us for re-dissection of the aorta. An urgent operation involving aortic arch replacement was performed. There was a solitary coronary artery orifice at the left sinus of Valsalva and no ostium at the right sinus. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged 14 days after the surgery. Only 3 cases involving a single coronary artery complicated with dissecting aortic aneurysm have been reported previously.
