Successful Treatment of Acute Fulminant Eosinophilic Myocarditis in a Patient with Ulcerative Colitis Using Steroid Therapy and Percutaneous Cardiopulmonary Support.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2019. 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
A 47-year-old man with ulcerative colitis was transferred to our hospital due to progressive dyspnea. Electrocardiography on admission showed ST elevation in leads II, III, aVF, and V5-V6. Coronary angiography revealed no remarkable coronary stenosis, and left ventriculography showed a depressed left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) of 23%. Although the patient received percutaneous cardiopulmonary support, his EF progressively decreased (7-15%), and both ventricular tachycardia (VT) and high-degree atrial-ventricular block occurred. An endomyocardial biopsy showed eosinophilic infiltration in the myocardium. Steroid therapy improved the patient's EF. However, his severe inferior wall hypokinesis and non-sustained VT remained after the abovementioned treatment.
