Vasospastic Angina With ST-Segment Elevation Seen During Mobile Cardiac Outpatient Telemetry (MCOT) Monitoring.
Article in Journal of investigative medicine high impact case reports. 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 54-year-old man presented with significant ST-segment elevations noted on both channels displayed on the mobile cardiac outpatient telemetry (MCOT). Pertinent cardiac history was remarkable for syncope and episodes of atypical chest pain. The latter were described as infrequent and not associated with exercise intolerance. His syncopal episodes were described as occurring mostly in the mornings after the use of the restroom. Episodes happen 1 or 2 times a year since 2015. Patient had undergone thorough investigation with no significant findings. An MCOT was prescribed since frequency of symptoms has recently increased. Significant ST-segment elevations were noted. The patient described atypical chest pain and a sensation of presyncope during these recordings. He was urgently admitted, and a coronary angiogram revealed no epicardial luminal stenosis. However, the presence of sluggish coronary flow was suggestive of possible vasospastic angina. No ST-segment changes were noted during his coronary angiogram. The remarkable element portrayed by this case hinges in showing the unique utility of MCOT, as the most uncharacteristic diagnostic tool, in identifying transient ST-segment elevations that finally led to the diagnosis.
