Vertebral Artery Dissection and Takotsubo Syndrome Associated with Marijuana Use.
Article in Cureus, 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
Cervical artery dissection is an intimal tear in a cervical artery with the development of intramural hematoma resulting in stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysmal dilation. Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is characterized by acute heart failure with a distinctive regional left ventricular contraction profile. We presented the case of a 33-year-old male who visited the emergency department due to right-sided arm/leg weakness, slurred speech and transient loss of right eye vision. The patient was diagnosed with vertebral artery dissection and TTS complicated with community-acquired pneumonia. Only other case has been reported of TTS with bilateral vertebral artery dissection. TTS is a disease triggered by physical or emotional stressors. It can be confused with acute myocardial infarction and should be disoriented for the appropriate management. The prognosis is generally favorable.
