Surgical Management of a Right Coronary Artery Fistula After Failed Transcatheter Closure: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2025. 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
A coronary artery fistula (CAF) is an abnormal communication between a coronary artery and a great vessel or cardiac chamber. CAFs are very rare and are mostly of congenital origin, but they can also be acquired. Patients are usually asymptomatic since the majority of CAFs are small in size; hence, most cases are usually discovered incidentally during routine angiographic investigations. Moderate or large CAFs can be symptomatic, causing angina pectoris due to coronary steal phenomenon, and can carry a high risk of serious complications such as myocardial infarction, heart failure, or even sudden cardiac death. Consequently, prompt management with the appropriate choice of intervention - surgical versus transcatheter closure - is essential to prevent such complications. We present a case of a 52-year-old male patient with a right coronary artery-coronary sinus fistula managed with surgical closure.
