Myasthenic Crisis and Concomitant Takotsubo Syndrome Complicated by Shock.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2024. 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
A man in his 80s with myasthenia gravis (MG) developed dysmobility and chest discomfort. An electrocardiogram revealed ST-segment elevation, and coronary angiography revealed Takotsubo syndrome (TTS). He experienced myasthenic crisis that required ventilation and shock that was refractory to vasopressors and required intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) insertion. He was managed conservatively without MG-specific treatment until his hemodynamics improved. On hospital day 6, he was weaned from IABP. MG is a high-risk condition for TTS, and TTS with myasthenic crisis (MC) is associated with high mortality. We successfully managed this case of TTS with MC with intubation and IABP, without MG-specific treatment.
