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

A case of the mid-ventricular variant of takotsubo cardiomyopathy is reported, occurring in a patient with Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome (CHS), and presented with a review of the relevant literature. The patient is a 32-year-old woman who presented with epigastric pain, nausea and vomiting. Her EKG showed dynamic T-wave changes associated with a modest cardiac biomarker elevation. Ventricular wall motion abnormalities suggestive of the mid-ventricular variant of takotsubo cardiomyopathy were demonstrated by echocardiography, ventriculography and cardiac angiography, the latter showing normal coronary arteries. The patient was a previous marijuana user who had recently ingested marijuana after a period of abstinence. Severe epigastric pain, nausea and cyclic vomiting followed this. She had previously experienced similar gastrointestinal symptoms, relieved by compulsive hot water bathing, and resolving after marijuana cessation. Recent resumption of marijuana use was followed by a recurrence of these symptoms, a pattern characteristic of CHS. The association of cardiomyopathy with CHS has been described only once in the literature, and if this is a true relationship, its mechanism is not clearly defined. Animal models have suggested that endocannabinoid receptors are expressed in the myocardium, which could be a pathway for developing cardiac manifestations with cannabinoid use.
