Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES) and Takotsubo: A Heart and Brain Affair!
Article in Cureus, 2021. 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
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC) is characterized by reversible left ventricle systolic dysfunction usually associated with stressors (physiological, psychological) being triggering factors. The increase in sympathetic activity, along with a subsequent surge of catecholamines, has been hypothesized as a possible etiology of TC. Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES), a relatively rare and recently recognized reversible clinico-radiological syndrome, is thought to share the same pathophysiology as TC. We present a case of an 83-year-old female who presented with seizures and was found to have PRES. Within three days of hospitalization, she developed takotsubo. She endorsed being under significant emotional stress that was thought to be the common culprit for both of her syndromes, i.e., PRES and TC.
