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

A left ventricular pseudoaneurysm, an ominous consequence of acute myocardial infarction, poses a significant threat to patient well-being. Prompt and accurate diagnosis is crucial for improving patient outcomes. This report describes diagnostic imaging findings for identifying left ventricular pseudoaneurysms, emphasizing the critical role of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging alongside other modalities. We present two cases of patients with a history of myocardial infarction who presented with palpitations, chest pain, and shortness of breath. Initial 2D echocardiography in both patients revealed aneurysmal dilation of the left ventricle. Cardiac MRI was then performed, confirming the diagnosis in both cases.
