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 cameral fistulas are rare abnormal connections between one or more coronary arteries and any chamber of the heart, occurring in less than 1% of the population. Cameral fistulas are classically asymptomatic and an incidental finding. Etiology is most commonly congenital but can also be acquired secondary to cardiac surgery or trauma. Cardiac catheterization with coronary angiography remains the diagnostic modality of choice. We present a case of a symptomatic patient presenting with dyspnea and hypertension diagnosed with an incidental mid-left anterior descending to right ventricle cameral coronary fistula. We discuss current literature on the management of this anatomic anomaly.
