Takotsubo cardiomyopathy in a patient with an ascending colon mass.

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 a syndrome characterized by transient regional systolic dysfunction of the left ventricle in the absence of angiographic evidence of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). A variety of stress-related triggers, including malignancies, have been reported in patients with TTC. However, to our knowledge, a recent diagnosis of a colon mass preceding the development of TTC has not been reported. We report on a female patient who was recently diagnosed with a colon mass by colonoscopy who was then scheduled to undergo robotic hemicolectomy, but was subsequently admitted to our hospital for intractable nausea and abdominal pain. While admitted, she developed transient ventricular tachycardia with elevated cardiac markers. The echocardiogram revealed markedly decreased ejection fraction and mid to distal apical akinesis with regional wall motion abnormalities. Coronary angiogram demonstrated no significant CAD, consistent with the diagnosis of TTC. The recently diagnosed colon mass was the most likely stress trigger in the development of TTC.
