Concomitant myocardial infarction and systemic embolism associated with thrombosis of the right coronary ostium: a case report.
Article in European heart journal. Case reports, 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
Background: Sequential occurrences of acute ischaemic stroke in patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) and vice versa have been reported, but not the simultaneous occurrence of both conditions. We report a case of simultaneous occurrence of MI and systemic embolism caused by a mechanism not reported to date. Case summary: A 52-year-old female patient presented with concurrent chest pain, right arm weakness, and dysphasia. An electrocardiogram demonstrated ST-elevation MI. A computed tomography angiography ruled out aortic dissection and showed an ischaemic stroke and infarction in the right kidney and spleen. A right coronary thrombotic occlusion at the ostium was successfully recanalized. Transoesophageal echocardiography showed preserved left ventricular function with no intracardiac thrombi. Discussion: The reported case presentation does not align with the mechanisms typically associated with simultaneous MI and stroke. The most plausible hypothesis is that the thrombus in the right coronary ostium extended into the aorta, resulting in a concurrent systemic embolism.
