Vasospastic Angina Diagnosed by the Spasm Provocation Test with the Combined Use of the Acetylcholine and Ergonovine Provocation Tests.
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 2 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
The spasm provocation test (SPT) is important for diagnosing vasospastic angina (VSA), and acetylcholine (ACh) is usually used for this test in Japan. However, some patients with VSA have negative SPT results with the use of the standard ACh regimen alone. We herein report two cases in which VSA was diagnosed by the SPT with the combined use of ACh and ergonovine (EM). VSA could not be diagnosed in either case by the SPT using ACh infusions alone. For patients with negative SPT results, cardiologists should consider performing the SPT using a combination of ACh and EM.
