Myocardial Infarction as an Early Presentation in Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura: A Rare Case Series.
Article in Journal of investigative medicine high impact case reports. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Renal and neurological involvements are frequently seen in thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). Cardiac involvement, however, has been rarely reported. In this article, we present 2 cases of myocardial infarction in patients with TTP. In the first case, a young man presented with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction that resolved promptly with plasmapheresis. The second patient developed ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction early in the course of the disease and died before plasmapheresis could be initiated. Hence, a high degree of suspicion with prompt diagnosis and treatment is needed to prevent mortality associated with cardiac involvement in TTP.
