Challenge in Diagnosis and Management of a Patient With Myocardial Bridge and Coronary Artery Spasm.
Article in JACC. 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
Positive ischemia by noninvasive imaging studies often results in nonobstructive disease in cardiac catheterization. In this case, we observed ischemia by nuclear stress test in only the anteroseptal area, and the apex is free of ischemia. Coronary angiogram findings were unremarkable, but intravascular ultrasound confirmed the long length of the myocardial bridge. Further testing with spasm provocation and microvascular testing showed diffuse epicardial spasm in this area of myocardial bridge without microvascular dysfunction. We observed the myocardial bridge but no microvascular dysfunction. This case illustrates the coexistence of spasm in the area of a myocardial bridge and the challenges in the medical management of these patients. (
