Persistent Myocardial Ischaemia due to Anaemia in a Patient with Coeliac Disease - A Case Report.
Review in Heart international, 2020. 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
introductionCoeliac disease (CD) is a systemic disease of inappropriate immune response to gluten, and is associated with 10% increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Here we present a case of a young patient with persistent myocardial ischaemia due to iron-deficiency anaemia despite oral iron supplementation, who was eventually diagnosed with CD. CASE REPORT: A 36-year-old man was admitted to the cardiology department due to ST-elevation myocardial infarction of the inferior wall. Emergency coronary angiography showed occlusion of the right coronary artery and intermediate-diameter lesions in other arteries. Primary percutaneous coronary intervention with stent implantation to the right coronary artery was performed. Despite the successful intervention, the patient presented with recurrent chest pain, persistent tachycardia up to 120 beats per minute and syncope. Coronary angiography was repeated and the intermediate-diameter lesions were proved insignificant. Laboratory tests revealed microcytic anaemia with haemoglobin level of 6.5 g/dL, despite oral iron supplementation in the pre-hospital period. An emergency gastroscopy with duodenoscopy revealed flat duodenal mucosa. The duodenal biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of CD. Strict gluten-free diet and further iron supplementation were recommended. Two months later the patient presented with no recurrent chest pain and normal haemoglobin concentration.
conclusionsDiagnosis of CD with atypical presentation can be difficult. Iron-deficiency anaemia refractory to oral iron supplementation should always raise the suspicion of CD, even without typical gastrointestinal manifestation.
