Coronary artery disease concomitant with immunoglobulin G4-related disease: a case report and literature review.
Article in European heart journal. Case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundImmunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an autoimmune condition associated with high serum IgG4 levels which was first reported as autoimmune pancreatitis in 2001. Since then, many additional organs, such as bile duct, salivary gland, retroperitoneal organs, and liver, have been reported with high serum IgG4 levels in cases of IgG4-RD. However, evidence of the relationship between IgG4-RD and coronary artery disease (CAD) has been scare. Here, we report a case of CAD concomitant with IgG4-RD. CASE SUMMARY: A 74-year-old man was referred to our hospital with a chief complaint of chest pain and was admitted. The patient was found to have had a myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation and underwent an emergent percutaneous coronary intervention. Owing to a rapidly increased blood glucose level, computed tomography was performed and showed autoimmune pancreatitis. An elevated serum level of IgG4 led to a diagnosis of IgG4-RD involving acute coronary syndrome (ACS). DISCUSSION: Cardiac involvement in IgG4-RD has been reported; however, cases of ACS concomitant with IgG4-RD are rare. Our report suggests that CAD, specifically ACS, can coexist in patients with IgG4-RD. Therefore, cases of concomitant CAD and IgG4-RD should be accurately diagnosed and evidence should be collected to elucidate the mechanism and characteristics of this condition.
