Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection of the Left Main Coronary Artery.
Article in Cureus, 2020. 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
Heart attacks in young populations are frequently misdiagnosed as reflux disease or anxiety. Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a coronary artery disease that classically manifests around the age of 45 years and has a fatal outcome if missed. Since it was first described in 1931, our understanding of SCAD has evolved tremendously, particularly with the advent of advanced coronary angiography. Electrocardiograms can show abnormality in the ST-segment, with an elevation of cardiac damage markers. The involvement of the coronary arteries is variable. The left main coronary artery is frequently reported as the main culprit. We are hereby reporting a case of SCAD in a young woman who presented with a heart attack. Particularly, her age is younger than the reported cases, cardiac catheterization revealed a left main artery dissection with a thrombolytic extension, and her complicated case was managed with coronary artery bypass and heart transplantation.
