1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 man in his 60s with prior history of coronary artery bypass graft was found collapsed, unresponsive on the floor by family. ECG demonstrated an inferior ST elevation myocardial infarction. However, coronary angiography was negative for a culprit lesion. A faciobrachial dystonic seizure was witnessed during his hospitalisation, ultimately leading to a diagnosis of leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 (LGI-1) autoimmune encephalitis. It is likely that neurogenic stunned myocardium led to this presentation.
