Temporal electrocardiographic changes in anterior ST elevation myocardial infarction versus the Takotsubo syndrome.
Article in International journal of cardiology. Heart & vasculature, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: Electrocardiography (ECG) on admission is similar in ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and Takotsubo syndrome (TTS). ECG on admission has been extensively investigated and compared between STEMI and TTS, however, only a few studies have compared temporal ECG. Our aim was to compare ECG in anterior STEMI versus female TTS from admission to day 30. Methods: Adult patients with anterior STEMI or TTS treated at Sahlgrenska University Hospital (Gothenburg, Sweden) from December 2019 to June 2022 were prospectively enrolled. Baseline characteristics, clinical variables and ECGs from admission to day 30 were analyzed. Using a mixed effects model, we compared temporal ECG between female patients with anterior STEMI or TTS, as well as between female and male patients with anterior STEMI. Results: A total of 101 anterior STEMI patients (31 female, 70 male) and 34 TTS patients (29 female, 5 male) were included. The temporal pattern of T wave inversion was similar between female anterior STEMI and female TTS, as well as between female and male anterior STEMI. ST elevation was more common, whereas QT prolongation was less common, in anterior STEMI compared with TTS. Q wave pathology was more similar between female anterior STEMI and female TTS than between female and male anterior STEMI. Conclusions: The pattern of T wave inversion and Q wave pathology from admission to day 30 was similar in female patients with anterior STEMI and female patients with TTS. Temporal ECG in female patients with TTS may be interpreted as following a "transient ischemic" pattern.
