Anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ARCAPA) unmasked by coronary artery disease of the left coronary system in a 62-year-old man.

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
This case is an illustration of the complex interplay between congenital coronary anomalies like anomalous right coronary artery from pulmonary artery and acquired cardiovascular conditions like coronary artery disease (CAD) in adults. Anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ARCAPA) is a rare congenital coronary anomaly which is typically diagnosed in childhood or young adulthood. There is limited data on the incidence of ARCAPA in older adults, particularly in association with CAD. Development of symptoms due to onset of significant stenosis in the left coronary artery system (left anterior descending artery and left circumflex artery), led to the discovery of ARCAPA in our case. Surgical correction is considered the treatment of choice in anomalous origin of coronary artery from pulmonary artery, regardless of the age of presentation and symptom status. While several surgical techniques for managing ARCAPA have been described, the goal of surgical intervention should be to restore the dual coronary system in order to optimize outcomes.
