Man in his third decade with a giant coronary artery aneurysm.

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 report details a rare instance of chronic rupture in a 27-year-old male with a giant coronary artery aneurysm (GCAA) in the mid-left anterior descending artery (mid-LAD). Presenting with 4-month chronic chest pain and 3-day hemoptysis, cardiac computed tomography angiography (CTA) and catheter angiography revealed a 3.8 cm × 2.5 cm aneurysm with adjacent 60% stenosis. Etiological workup excluded Kawasaki disease, infective endocarditis, vasculitis, and hereditary vasculopathies via negative serological, infectious, and genetic screening, suggesting an idiopathic origin with chronic inflammatory changes. Surgical management involved coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with saphenous vein and aneurysm resection, with no stent implantation attempted. The patient showed favorable recovery with 3-month postoperative follow-up, free of complications. This case highlights the diagnostic value of multi-modality imaging and surgical intervention in young patients with complex aneurysmal pathology.
