Catastrophic Events of Cardiac Sarcoidosis: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. 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
Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) can be silent in most patients with extrapulmonary sarcoidosis. Atrioventricular (AV) block is the most common clinical presentation, but it can also present as fatal ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Endomyocardial biopsy is the gold standard; however, it is not sensitive since CS can involve the myocardium in a patchy distribution. Our case depicts a female who presented with syncope; however, her hospital course was complicated by multiple cardiac arrests. Her initial laboratory tests, including an autoimmune workup, were unremarkable. Cardiac magnetic resonance and fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging revealed intramyocardial delayed enhancement of the basal anteroseptal (non-ischemic distribution) and patchy foci of increased uptake in the anteroseptal and inferior myocardial region, respectively. The patient was started on intravenous methylprednisolone, and her condition slowly improved. Post-discharge, the patient followed in the outpatient clinic with a repeat FDG-PET scan revealing resolution of myocardial FDG uptake. She also underwent bronchoscopy with lymph node biopsy showing granulomas and endobronchial biopsy confirming pulmonary sarcoidosis.
