A Patient with Mitochondrial Disease on Dialysis with Long-term Follow-up of Cardiomyopathy: An Autopsy Case Report.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2023. 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
A 59-year-old man developed diabetes at 24 years old and underwent hemodialysis at 42 years old. At 54 years old, cardiac dysfunction with left ventricular hypertrophy was detected, followed by complete atrioventricular block at 57 years old. The patient was diagnosed with mitochondrial disease based on a myocardial biopsy and the presence of a mitochondrial DNA mutation (3243A>G). He died of septic shock at 59 years old, and an autopsy confirmed mitochondrial cardiomyopathy. If progressive cardiac hypertrophy and conduction disturbances are observed in patients with diabetes mellitus on long-term hemodialysis, mitochondrial disease needs to be considered.
