Newly diagnosed essential thrombocythemia leading to cardiogenic shock: a case report.
Article in BMC cardiovascular disorders, 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
backgroundEssential thrombocythemia (ET) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by uninhibited platelet production. It can present with vasomotor symptoms, and less commonly, severe thrombotic events such as myocardial infarction. ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) secondary to the hypercoagulable state in ET is a diagnostic challenge as the complication is rare, especially outside the typical demographics affected by ET such as the female and elderly populations. CASE PRESENTATION: Here we report a case of a 32-year-old male found to have STEMI and a markedly elevated platelet count. Angiography revealed occlusion of the left anterior descending and left circumflex arteries, requiring percutaneous intervention and Impella support. The patient was later diagnosed with essential thrombocythemia, treated with hydroxyurea and antiplatelet therapy, and discharged with a wearable cardioverter defibrillator.
conclusionsThis case illustrates the potential for severe thrombotic complications such as STEMI due to ET. Severe thrombotic complications are less common manifestations of ET in general, particularly in young males. Recognition and diagnosis of ET are critical for the institution of appropriate therapy and prevention of STEMI and cardiogenic shock among other complications.
