Severe heatstroke complicated with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy.
Article in Acute medicine & surgery, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Case: A 69 year-old female with history of schizophrenia was transported to our hospital by ambulance due to coma. On arrival, she was hypotensive and tachycardic with a Glasgow coma scale score of 3 and a rectal core temperature of 40°C. Heatstroke was strongly suspected as the cause of the coma and hypotension. Active external cooling with an electric fan and cooled IV fluid administration were started. Her electrocardiogram (EKG) showed ST elevation in V2-6, II, III and aVF. Echocardiography revealed apical ballooning, which indicated Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Coronary angiography indicated normal coronary arteries. Outcome: After admission to the intensive care unit, her cardiovascular status gradually improved and she was transferred to the psychiatric ward on day 36. Conclusion: Heatstroke and Takotsubo cardiomyopathy can share the same pathophysiology. Close evaluation of hemodynamic status and myocardial damage is critical for survival.
