1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 syndrome (TTS) is an acute and often fully reversible heart failure condition. TTS was initially regarded as a benign syndrome, but it is known that TTS is associated with a mortality comparable to that of ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Interestingly, 2/3 of TTS occurrences are triggered by emotional or physical stressors. Meanwhile, the pathophysiology behind TTS is poorly understood. As no randomized trials exist to define the optimal treatment, current guidelines are based on expert opinion and the management of TTS-patients is often supportive. We present the case of a postmenopausal woman with relapsing TTS from two different emotional stressors where the treatment was carried out in cooperation between psychiatric and cardiology specialists. This case bears significance as severe relapsing TTS was managed successfully in collaboration between cardiologists and psychiatrists.
