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

Background: An anomalous right coronary artery (RCA) originating from the left anterior descending artery (LAD) is a rare subtype of single coronary artery ostium. Revascularization in such cases is challenging due to the large feeding territory or the potential for compression by an adjacent vessel. Case description: We report the case of a 57-year-old woman who presented to our hospital with exertional chest pain and dyspnea. An anomalous RCA was identified, originating from the mid-portion of the LAD. Coronary angiography and coronary multi-detector computed tomography revealed a significant stenosis at the LAD just proximal to the RCA bifurcation. A successful percutaneous coronary intervention was performed to revascularize the LAD stenosis. The patient was discharged in good general condition two days later. Conclusions: Despite the rarity of coronary anomalies, future studies could be undertaken to assess the potential benefits of screening, particularly in specific populations such as professional athletes.
