Evaluation of MINOCA syndrome and HEART score in patients presenting to the emergency department with panic attack and chest pain complaints.

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
backgroundPatients presenting with chest pain may or may not be experiencing a panic attack. Is chest pain caused by a panic attack or myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) syndrome?
aimIn this study, we evaluated both MINOCA syndrome and HEART score in patients who presented to the emergency department with panic attacks and chest pain.
methodPatients who applied to the emergency department with panic disorder and chest pain complaints were included. Patients who met the MINOCA diagnostic criteria were identified. The study was completed with 143 eligible patients out of a total of 217 patients evaluated. The patients were divided into two groups. The first group was those whose symptoms and test results were consistent with MINOCA. The second group was composed of those whose chest pain was considered non-specific. The HEART score of all patients was calculated. The demographic characteristics, symptoms, and HEART scores were compared between the groups.
resultsOf the 143 patients evaluated in the study, 62 (43.3%) were male and 81 (56.7%) were female. While the mean HEART score was 4.7 ± 1.5 in the MINOCA group, it was 2.0 ± 1.0 in the non-cardiac group, a statistically significant difference.
conclusionClinicians should pay attention to the patient's age, gender, number of attacks per week, HEART score, and which symptoms (palpitations, shortness of breath, and fear of death) are present in patients who meet the panic attack diagnostic criteria. Clinicians should be alert to the MINOCA syndrome in panic attack patients.
