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

We present the case of a 77-year-old woman who suffered from chest pain. Her white blood cell count was 10,200/μL and C-reactive protein level was 5.5 mg/dL. There was no electrocardiogram abnormality up to 5 hours after admission. At 15 hours, slight ST-segment elevation occurred, but this disappeared on day 4. Imaging revealed slight pericardial effusion. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics were administered. However, the pericardial effusion, inflammatory response, and bilateral heart failure worsened. Pericardiotomy on day 6 released 350 mL of fluid, and symptoms improved. Viral pericarditis was assumed. Massive pericardial effusion is rare in cases of acute viral pericarditis, as is slight, short-duration ST-segment elevation.
