Catecholamine Mega Storm Triggered by Cocaine Use and Thyrotoxicosis Crisis.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is a well-recognized non-ischemic complication of physical and emotional stressors leading to heart dysfunction. Both thyroid storm and cocaine have been implicated with TCM to varying degrees. We present the case of a 26-year-old male with Graves' disease and cocaine abuse who was hospitalized with thyroid storm resulting in takotsubo cardiomyopathy and cardiogenic shock. The patient had a long and complicated hospital course, requiring advanced therapies including extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and other medical and mechanical circulatory support therapies. With treatment for thyroid storm using antithyroid medications and steroids, the patient eventually had complete recovery of his left ventricular function and was ultimately weaned from pressors, inotropes and mechanical support.
