1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Coronary artery anomalies are rare congenital abnormalities involving abnormal coronary artery origin and incomplete/abnormal vessel development. These anomalies encompass a broad anatomical spectrum with varied clinical presentations ranging from sudden cardiac arrest in young athletes to incidental findings in asymptomatic adults. While more data on anatomy and clinical presentation has emerged in the last decade, management remains highly individualized, guided by clinical presentation, anatomical characteristics, and patient preferences. This review provides an overview of each anomaly and recent advances in imaging, surgical planning, and risk stratification. We also highlight the challenges in optimizing management strategies, addressing gaps in evidence, and achieving consensus to refine risk stratification tools and support clinical decision-making.
