Sex Differences in Stress-Induced (Takotsubo) Cardiomyopathy.
Article in CJC open, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC) affects predominantly women. Prior studies have suggested that men might have worse short-term outcomes, but limited data are available regarding long-term outcomes. We hypothesized that men, compared to women, with TC have worse short- and long-term outcomes. Methods: A retrospective study of patients diagnosed with TC between 2005 and 2018 in the Veteran Affairs system was performed. Primary outcomes were in-hospital death, 30-day risk of stroke, death, and long-term mortality. Results: A total of 641 patients were included (444 men [69%]; 197 women [31%]). Men had a higher median age (65 vs 60 years; Conclusions: In our study with a predominantly male population, men had less-favourable short- and long-term outcomes after TC, compared to those of women.
