Coronary Artery Spasm During Catheter Ablation Caused by the Intravenous Infusion of Isoproterenol.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2021. 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
Radiofrequency ablation is an established treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF). However, coronary artery spasm (CAS) is a rare but a potentially lethal complication associated with this procedure. A 54-year-old man with paroxysmal AF underwent pulmonary vein isolation. The procedure was completed and AF could not be induced after burst pacing and the administration of isoproterenol. Suddenly, ST-segment elevation developed in the anterior leads and frequent premature ventricular contractions followed by non-sustained ventricular fibrillation. The diagnosis of CAS was made by urgent coronary angiography. We identified isoproterenol as a potential cause of CAS. Physicians should be aware of this potentially lethal side effect.
