Atypical Presentation of Myocardial Infarction in a Young Patient With Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one of the common endocrinopathy noted in women of childbearing age groups. Patients with PCOS have increased cardiovascular risk factors compared with age-matched control; hence, these patients are believed to be at an increased risk for cardiovascular events. Here, we report a case of a young female with PCOS, who presented with atypical back pain in the thoracic region. Initially, her electrocardiogram (EKG) and troponin were normal; hence, it was thought to be a muscle spasm but the back pain continued; repeat EKG and troponin came abnormal suggestive of myocardial infarction (MI). The patient underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention and was discharged on dual antiplatelet therapy. MI is common in patients with PCOS. MI is the most important differential diagnosis in any patients of PCOS presenting with chest pain or back pain. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment of MI in patients with PCOS prevent adverse outcomes.
