Takotsubo cardiomyopathy and transient global amnesia: a shared aetiology.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is associated with acute, reversible left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, while transient global amnesia (TGA) is a reversible disorder of the brain characterised by anterograde amnesia. We report an unusual case of TTC occurring concurrently in a patient with TGA, and propose that catecholamine surge induced cerebral venous congestion and cardiotoxicity is the shared aetiology that leads to the concurrent manifestation of these conditions. TTC and TGA are reversible disorders that can occur concurrently in a subset of patients due to a unifying aetiology, catecholamine excess, leading to pathophysiological changes within the brain and the myocardium.
