Boerhaave Syndrome Mimicking Acute Coronary Syndrome.
Article in ACG case reports journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Boerhaave syndrome, an esophageal perforation due to increased intraesophageal pressure, may mimic other cardiovascular conditions including acute coronary syndrome. In this report, we present a case of a 63-year-old man who presented with chest pain and ischemic electrocardiogram abnormalities, prompting an initial diagnosis of ST elevation myocardial infarction. After coronary stenting, the patient continued to have chest pain, ST segment elevations, and newly elevated cardiac enzymes. A computed tomography scan showed esophageal perforation, requiring endoscopic stenting. This case underscores the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges of Boerhaave syndrome and the importance of considering this condition in adults with chest pain and ischemic electrocardiogram changes.
