The Zurkurnai ECG Pattern: A Novel ECG Pattern of the High-Risk Features of Acute Pulmonary Embolism.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Acute pulmonary embolism is an important differential diagnosis in patients presenting with acute shortness of breath. However, the overlapping clinical presentation between acute coronary syndrome, aortic dissection, pneumonia, and heart failure made the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism very challenging in a limited resources center. We present a case of acute pulmonary embolism with an uncommon ECG pattern that was initially misdiagnosed as acute coronary syndrome. The authors made the appropriate diagnosis using the Zurkurnai ECG pattern in acute pulmonary embolism, which is defined as the presence of right axis deviation, deep symmetrical T wave inversion in V1 to V5, II, III, and AVF with the maximum at V3-V4 and poor R wave progression, which indicates the high-risk features of acute pulmonary embolism.
