Coronary Artery Fistula From the Left Circumflex to Coronary Sinus.

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
backgroundCoronary arteriovenous fistulas (CAVFs) are rare occurrences with an incidence of 0.1% to 0.9% on coronary angiography. Fistulas between the left circumflex coronary artery and coronary sinus are even less common. CASE SUMMARY: A 71-year-old female underwent extensive diagnostic imaging for CAVF. Intervention with catheterized closure and coil embolization was planned but not performed due to disparate anatomy of the CAVF on echocardiogram, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, and coronary angiography. Because of these discrepancies, there was an uncertain risk for distal embolization of the coils. DISCUSSION: Variance in diagnostic interpretation from different imaging modalities can lead to difficulty in confirming the anatomy of a CAVF and hinder resolution. Best-practice diagnostic imaging and treatment options for CAVFs are discussed. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: Fistulas between the LCX and CS are rare, and their characteristics, origin, and termination can be difficult to determine without appropriate imaging modalities. This case highlights the efficacy of different imaging and treatment options for CAVFs.
