Lung cancer presenting with acute myocardial infarction and pulmonary embolism within 1 month.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Acute myocardial infarction and pulmonary embolism can have life-threatening consequences such as congestive heart and respiratory failure, respectively. Cancer patients are at great risk of both acute myocardial infarction and pulmonary embolism complications because the malignancy sparks the patient's blood hypercoagulable state. Nevertheless, the literature currently offers only a few reports on acute myocardial infarction associated with pulmonary embolism, and two of them occurred in the same cancer patient. Here, we present a case of a 60-year-old woman who had been diagnosed with lung cancer. She was admitted to the emergency department twice. She was diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction at her first admission, when she experienced sudden-onset chest pain. Electrocardiography showed ST-segment elevation in leads V1-V3 with inverted T wave and pathological Q wave, suggesting an acute myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography revealed a thrombus in the left anterior descending coronary artery, and thrombus aspiration was performed. After 1 month, she had an attack of pulmonary embolism with syncope upon the second admission. A computed tomographic pulmonary angiography showed branches of right and left pulmonary embolism. Anticoagulation and antiplatelet measures were taken. In this article, we discuss the relationship between cancer and thrombosis with a special focus on the conservative management strategy regarding anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapy in our case.
