Takotsubo syndrome with several hypertensive crises: an unexpected diagnosis.
Article in Cardiovascular endocrinology & metabolism, 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
We present an unusual clinical case of a 39-year-old woman admitted to the Department of Cardiology due to stenocardial pain accompanied by hypertensive crisis. The patient presented with severe chest pain and high blood pressure, along with a history of type 2 diabetes, hyperlipidemia, smoking, and hypertension. Initial tests showed elevated troponin T, glucose, CRP, and D-dimer levels, and electrocardiography and transthoracic echocardiography showed abnormalities suggesting acute myocardial infarction, but angiography did not reveal any significant coronary artery blockages. Further tests and imaging led to a diagnosis of takotsubo syndrome (TTS) and suspicion of pheochromocytoma, which was confirmed later biopsy. The presented case is very rare because the coexistence of TTS and pheochromocytoma is not common due to the rarity of the tumor. It is very important to make a quick and accurate diagnosis, because improperly treated cases can lead to death.
