Myocarditis: Differences in Clinical Expression between Patients with ST-Segment Elevation in Electrocardiogram vs. Patients without ST-Segment Elevation.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesIn cases of myocarditis, electrocardiograms (ECGs) may suggest a pattern of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). NSTEMI patterns are less frequent in myocarditis cases, but it remains unclear if the presence of ST-segment elevation in myocarditis cases is related to a more severe condition and more damage in the myocardium.
methodsThis is a retrospective study involving 38 patients admitted to hospital with myocarditis. Patients were divided into two groups: patients with ST-segment elevation (STE) patterns in the ECG (25), and patients without ST-segment elevation (non-STE) patterns (13). The data compared included results from epidemiological, laboratory, and instrumental tests. Data were analysed using IBM SPSS Statistics v26.0. A
resultsC-reactive protein (CRP) levels were higher in the STE group (103.40 ± 82.04 mg/L vs. 43.54 ± 61.93 mg/L,
conclusionsLVEFs in the STE group were lower compared to those in the non-STE pattern group. STE pattern was associated with higher CRP levels. Higher TnI levels in cases of myocarditis were associated with lower LV strain and lower LVEF; higher CRP levels also correlated with lower LVEF. Based on a 6-month echocardiographic follow-up, the prognosis of myocarditis was favourable.
