Resistant Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia in a Patient Taking Raspberry Ketones Weight Loss Supplement.
Article in Cureus, 2022. 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
A 32-year-old female with no cardiac risk factors was admitted for treatment of a perianal abscess. During her hospital stay, she had a pulseless electrical activity arrest with a return of spontaneous circulation after one round of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). After transfer to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), the patient had polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (PVT) requiring defibrillation shock. Her PVT was resistant to medical interventions. She was shocked a total of 33 times before her arrhythmia was terminated by passing a temporary transvenous pacemaker with overdrive pacing. After an extensive review of her history and presentation, no clear cause of her resistant arrhythmia was identified, however, she was found to have recently started taking over-the-counter weight loss supplements containing raspberry ketones which is a potentially cardiotoxic ingredient.
