Double the Trouble - One Infarction After Another: A Case Report of Two Consecutive ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarctions in Two Different Coronary Arteries.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In multi-vessel coronary artery disease, concomitant ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in simultaneous two culprit lesions have been rarely reported. In this regard, the recurrence in a short period of time of a STEMI in a different coronary artery is also rare. We describe the case of a 56-year-old male smoker, who was presented with an anterior STEMI. The coronary angiography demonstrated a significant lesion in the left main coronary (LMC) and an occlusion of the left anterior descending artery (LAD), and was referred for surgery. Four days later, he experienced symptoms of acute ischemia of the inferior territory. A newly formed culprit lesion of the circumflex artery (Cx) was detected and benefited from angioplasty. The patient expired the next day from sudden arrythmia. This case report shows two consecutive STEMI situations in separate coronary arteries, which commonly can occur in atherosclerotic patients with very poor prognosis.
