Successful treatment of left main shock syndrome induced by thrombosed coronary artery dissection: A case report.
Article in Medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
rationaleLeft main shock syndrome (LMSS) induced by thrombosed coronary artery dissection is very rare and has a fatal prognosis. Optimal treatment strategy includes early reperfusion and hemodynamic support to prevent cardiogenic shock. However, it involves the extension of technical difficulties under different conditions. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 49-year-old woman developed symptoms of left main shock syndrome. The main clinical manifestations were retrosternal pain radiating to his back and left shoulder, heavy sweating, palpitation and brachypnea. DIAGNOSES: Acute anterioseptal myocardial infarction (Killip Class IV) with cardiogenic shock and arrhythmia including ventricular tachycardia and idionodal rhythm, and coronary artery dissection.
interventionsA thrombus aspiration procedure was performed for the establishment of coronary flow under intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) support. Her coronary angiographic finding demonstrated a dissection in the mid-distal segment of the left main coronary artery where a sirolimus-eluting stent was deployed. Then, the veno-arterial extra-corporal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) was placed to improve severe cardiac dysfunction and end-organ failure. OUTCOMES: The patient had a good outcome without active symptoms. LESSONS: Thrombosis on the basis of coronary dissection is a very rare cause of LMSS. Successful team treatments, including the prompt thrombus aspiration and stent repair of artery dissection, potent IABP and ECMO support are important to improve the clinical outcome.
