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

Eosinophilic myocarditis (EM) is a rare but potentially fatal complication of sustained eosinophilia that is characterized by eosinophilic infiltration into myocardial tissue. There are various etiologies of EM that can be classified into general categories: reactive, clonal, and idiopathic. We present a case of EM caused by chronic eosinophilic leukemia, a rare myeloproliferative neoplasm that frequently presents with sustained peripheral eosinophilia. This case displays several serious complications of EM, including recurrent ventricular tachycardia storm, cardiogenic shock, and mural thrombus formation despite anticoagulation. Diagnosis of EM can be difficult as formal diagnosis requires an endomyocardial biopsy. Once EM is suspected, identifying the underlying etiology of eosinophilia is critical for timely implementation of disease-specific therapy.
