Advanced Heart Block and Asystole After Regadenoson Infusion: When Cautionary Tales Become Reality.
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
Regadenoson (brand name Lexiscan) is a specific adenosine receptor agonist commonly used in pharmacologic stress testing due to its coronary vasodilatory effects. Despite it being generally well-tolerated, the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology established absolute and relative contraindications to the use of regadenoson in patients with certain co-morbidities such as uncontrolled hyper/hypotension, sinus node disease, and second-degree heart blocks. While cases of advanced heart block after the administration of regadenoson have been reported, they remain incidental. We report the case of an 84-year-old male sustaining second-degree type II heart block, followed by pulseless electrical activity and asystole after the administration of regadenoson.
