Scared to Death: Emotional Stress Causing Fatal Myocardial Infarction With Nonobstructed Coronary Arteries in Women.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Myocardial infarction with nonobstructed coronary arteries (MINOCA) can be triggered by intense emotions. We report 5 cases of emotional stress-related death where forensic examination attributed myocardial infarction to a coronary spasm, with the ultimate cause of death being arrhythmias in 4 cases and cardiac rupture in the fifth.
