Atraumatic splenic rupture after administering aspirin, clopidogrel, and heparin to a patient with unstable angina: A case report.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 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
It is a rare clinical phenomenon when a normal spleen ruptures spontaneously without any prior trauma. We present a 49-year-old male patient who was discovered to have a splenic rupture after he was referred to our facility as a case of unstable angina for cardiac catheterization based on nonspecific electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities and symptoms of chest discomfort coupled with abdominal pain and shortness of breath. He received aspirin, clopidogrel, and heparin before arriving at our emergency department. A splenectomy was performed for the patient, and he recovered well. Despite the rarity of spontaneous splenic rupture, physicians must consider it while evaluating elderly patients who are experiencing abdominal pain while on anticoagulants. Splenic rupture should always be considered, and early diagnosis is essential for a better outcome.
