1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background Takotsubo syndrome (TS) and myocardial infarction (MI) share similar clinical and laboratory characteristics but have important differences in causes, demographics, management, and outcomes. Methods and Results In this observational study, the National Inpatient Sample and National Readmission Database were used to identify patients admitted with TS, type 1 MI, or type 2 MI in the United States between October 1, 2017, and December 31, 2019. We compared patients hospitalized with TS, type 1 MI, and type 2 MI with respect to key features and outcomes. Over the 27-month study period, 2 035 055 patients with type 1 MI, 639 075 patients with type 2 MI, and 43 335 patients with TS were identified. Cardiac arrest, ventricular fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia were more prevalent in type 1 MI (4.02%, 3.2%, and 7.2%, respectively) compared with both type 2 MI (2.8%, 0.8%, and 5.4% respectively) and TS (2.7%, 1.8%, and 5.3%, respectively). Risk of mortality was lower in TS compared with both type 1 MI (3.3% versus 7.9%; adjusted odds ratio [OR], 0.3;
