Diagnosis of post-myocardial infarction left ventricular rupture on CT.
Article in BJR case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 rupture is often a catastrophic complication of acute myocardial infarction. Diagnosis can be challenging in the critically unwell patient. We present the case of a 70-year-old female who collapsed in the community with pulseless electrical activity, in cardiac arrest. She was transferred emergently to hospital where early resuscitation efforts were suggestive of a posterior myocardial infarct and severe blood loss. Point-of-care cardiac ultrasound demonstrated pericardial effusion but could not rule out aortic dissection. The patient underwent CT imaging with intravenous contrast which revealed left ventricular rupture secondary to the infarction. CT imaging can be a valuable diagnostic adjunct in patients with suspected post-infarction myocardial rupture.
