A giant and rapid myocardial remodeling due to fatal giant cell myocarditis: a case report.
Article in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 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
Giant cell myocarditis is a rare and rapidly progressive disease with a high mortality rate. We present the case of a 21-year-old male without a medical history who presented with a giant left ventricle (9.9 cm, EF:10%) and in a severe clinical state. Cardiac MRI and virology raised the suspicion of giant cell myocarditis. Concerned about the hemodynamic and respiratory deterioration, we initiated cardiac transplant therapy. A fatal ventricular fibrillation occurs while waiting for the heart transplant. Sudden death could represent the "first symptom" of pathological findings. It is important to recognize that while sudden death due to giant cell myocarditis may be rare, it is still a potentially serious complication of giant cell infection and should be considered in cases of unexplained sudden death. In addition, this case highlights the challenges in the diagnosis and management of giant cell myocarditis and the need for early recognition and aggressive treatment.
