Thymoma-Associated Myasthenia Gravis With Myocarditis.
Article in Cureus, 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
Myasthenia gravis (MG) complicated by myocarditis is a rare autoimmune manifestation. We present a patient who initially presented with a suspected ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with angiographically normal coronary arteries. A chest CT scan revealed a large homogenous soft-tissue density anterior mediastinal mass suspicious of thymoma. Neurological deterioration in the hospital suggested a diagnosis of MG with subsequent electromyography and nerve conduction studies (EMG/NCS) and repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS) confirmation. A cardiac magnetic resonance imaging study (CMR) demonstrated diffuse myocardial edema and severe left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and sub-epicardial late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) involving all basal and mid-LV segments in addition to apical inferior and lateral segments. A diagnosis of thymoma-associated MG with myocarditis was made and the patient was successfully treated with immunosuppression. This case highlights the association of myocarditis with MG as a potential complication that should be considered in patients with cardiac symptoms, ECG changes, or biomarker elevation.
