A Case Report of Right Heart Failure: An Uncommon Presentation : A Case Report of Right Heart Failure.
Article in Galen medical journal, 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
Background: Aortic dissection poses diagnostic challenges due to its varied symptoms. Prompt diagnosis and intervention are essential to reduce mortality and morbidity. Case Report: A 53-year-old woman presented with dyspnoea, palpitations, Epigastric and right upper quadrant pain, following recent chest tightness. She initially was diagnosed with a non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) based on the electrocardiogram (ECG) and cardiac enzymes. The transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) showed right heart impairment, mild aortic regurgitation, and significant tricuspid regurgitation. A coronary angiogram showed normal left coronary vessels but failed imaging of the right coronary artery which raised suspicion of aortic dissection due to an abnormal aortic root shape and a history of hypertension. Urgent CT aortography (CTA) confirmed acute Stanford type A aortic dissection with false lumen supplying the RCA ostia. Initially, conservative management was chosen due to right ventricular dysfunction. The patient then presenting with recurring symptoms 8 days later, after a multidisciplinary team meeting surgical intervention was decided. Comprising of full aortic root, aortic arch, and aortic valve replacement, plus tricuspid valve repair and annuloplasty. The patient was discharged post successful surgery. Conclusion: This case highlights the challenges of diagnosing and managing acute aortic syndromes, especially with atypical symptoms. Having a low threshold for cross sectional imaging techniques in such cases is likely to prompt accurate diagnosis and treatment in critical cases.
