Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy Occurring Simultaneously with Acute Myocardial Infarction.
Article in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 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
introductionTakotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is a reversible form of cardiomyopathy characterized by transient regional systolic dysfunction of the left ventricle. CASE OUTLINE: A 78-year-old woman was admitted to the general hospital due to acute inferior STEMI late presentation. Two days after admission, the patient reported intense chest pain and an ECG registered diffuse ST-segment elevation in all leads with ST-segment denivelation in aVR. The patient also showed clinical signs of cardiogenic shock and was referred to a reference institution for further evaluation. Echocardiography revealed akinesia of all medioapical segments, dynamic obstruction of the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT), moderate mitral regurgitation, and pericardial effusion. Coronary angiography showed the suboccluded right coronary artery, and a primary percutaneous coronary intervention was performed, which involved implanting a drug-eluting stent. The patient's condition worsened as pericardial effusion increased and led to tamponade. Pericardiocentesis was performed, resulting in the patient's stabilization. At this point, significant gradients at the LVOT and pericardial effusion were not registered. After eight days without symptoms and stable status, the patient was discharged.
conclusionsThe simultaneous presence of AMI and TCM increases the risk of developing cardiogenic shock. The cardio-circulatory profile of these patients is different from those with AMI.
