Severe Coronary Artery Disease and Nearly Atretic Aortic Coarctation in a Young Woman.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 2026. 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
backgroundCoarctation of the aorta is associated with long-term cardiovascular complications, including hypertension and early onset atherosclerosis. CASE SUMMARY: A 36-year-old woman with persistent hypertension after preeclampsia presented with chest pain. Electrocardiogram showed left ventricular hypertrophy with signs of ischemia. Echocardiography revealed a bicuspid aortic valve; however, the aortic arch was poorly seen. Coronary computed tomography identified severe left anterior descending artery stenosis with thoracic collaterals. During angioplasty, guidewire misdirection uncovered nearly atretic aortic coarctation, successfully stented a few days later. DISCUSSION: This case illustrates how aortic coarctation can remain undetected until adulthood. It causes long-term cardiovascular complications through chronic hypertension and vascular dysfunction, promoting early coronary artery disease. Besides classical risk factors, Turner syndrome, the shape of the aortic arch, as well as the timing and method of repair, also appear to be additional risk factors. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: Aortic coarctation is an aortopathy that leads to early atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease. Comprehensive evaluation is essential for timely diagnosis and optimal management.
