ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Presenting as Acute Limb Ischemia.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We describe a case of delayed presentation of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) complicated by ventricular thrombus and peripheral embolization causing limb ischemia. Our patient initially presented with symptoms of acute limb ischemia. However, on preoperative evaluation, STEMI was diagnosed. He required emergent revascularization of the left anterior descending artery followed by thrombectomy of the femoral artery. The cause of the limb ischemia was deemed to be a late presenting STEMI that was complicated by left ventricular thrombus, hence causing lower extremity embolization. Delayed presentations and complications related to STEMI may manifest as acute limb ischemia in the setting of ventricular thrombus formation and subsequent distal embolization.
