Shark Fin Sign in a Patient with Sepsis-induced Cardiomyopathy Associated with Retained Placenta: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Review in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Retained placenta can lead to septic shock; however, sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SICM) due to retained placenta has not been reported previously. This report presents a rare case of SICM following septic shock due to retained placenta after miscarriage in a 40-year-old woman, accompanied by the "shark fin sign" on an electrocardiogram, a pattern typically linked to myocardial ischemia. She experienced ventricular tachycardia and required venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; however, she was successfully treated. We also reviewed previous cases of shark fin sign in patients without myocardial infarction. A review showed that half of the cases experienced lethal arrhythmias, even without myocardial infarction.
