Post-infarction Left Ventricular Free Wall Rupture Diagnosed by Contrast-Enhanced Computed Tomography: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
A 70-year-old Japanese woman with hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes mellitus complained of abdominal discomfort and vomiting and was brought to our emergency department by ambulance two days later with impaired consciousness. Her vital signs suggested shock with a heart rate of 120 bpm. Electrocardiogram and initial transthoracic echocardiography suggested an inferior wall ST-elevation myocardial infarction, but the altered consciousness was inconsistent. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography was urgently performed to further clarify the cause. It revealed pericardial effusion and apparent extravasation from the left ventricular wall, confirming the early definitive diagnosis of left ventricular free wall rupture. The patient underwent successful emergent surgical repair without sequelae. Differential diagnosis of left ventricular free wall rupture is important in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction and impaired consciousness. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography allows early diagnosis and treatment of this life-threatening complication.
