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

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the major causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. In Central Europe, causes of AMI other than atherosclerosis are unusual. Coronary artery vasculitis is one potential non-atherosclerotic process causing AMI. Herein, the authors depict a very rare case of AMI as a clinical manifestation of polyarteritis nodosa (PAN), a necrotizing systemic vasculitis. A 49-year-old male patient presented to our clinic with abdominal pain and markedly elevated concentrations of C‑reactive protein, creatinine and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T. Electrocardiography showed new repolarization abnormalities in aVF and III. Besides PAN-typical angiographic findings, including bilateral renal artery microaneuryms as well as different arterial occlusions, coronary angiography displayed a complete thrombotic occlusion of the right coronary artery without any other coronary pathology. The present case report demonstrates AMI as very rare but deleterious complication in patients suffering from PAN, and highlights that this life-threatening event can occur even at a very early stage of PAN-related coronary affection.
