Embolic Stroke Due to a Large Noncoronary Sinus of Valsalva Aneurysm: A Multimodality Imaging Diagnosis.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 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
backgroundA sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SoVA) is a rare cardiac condition caused by the dilation of a coronary sinus. If untreated, it can commonly lead to valvular dysfunction, arrhythmias, or rupture. CASE SUMMARY: A 71-year-old patient with hypertension and hyperlipidemia presented with an embolic stroke. Multimodality imaging revealed a large, 7.0 cm × 5.6 cm SoVA originating from the noncoronary sinus and causing nearly complete obstruction of the left atrium. The aneurysm was surgically repaired, and the patient made a full recovery. DISCUSSION: In rare cases, a stroke may be the initial presentation of a SoVA. The probable cause of the patient's stroke was attributed to thrombus formation within the SoVA that embolized. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: This case emphasizes the importance of multimodality imaging for the diagnosis of a SoVA and for planning surgical repair. Additionally, clinicians should consider a SoVA in the differential diagnosis for a patient presenting with a stroke.
