1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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/

objectivesLoneliness and social isolation are considered significant social determinants of myocardial infarction (MI) or Takotsubo syndrome (TS). However, research on these factors in MI populations is highly heterogeneous, and evidence regarding TS is sparse. The present scoping review aimed at mapping the extent and breadth of the literature on loneliness and social isolation in individuals with MI or TS.

methodsFollowing PRISMA-ScR guidelines and JBI methodology, we conducted a systematic search in PubMed, Web of Science, and EBSCO/PsycINFO, supplemented by a manual search, for studies published up to 25 June 2024. Primary research studies on loneliness and/or social isolation in individuals with MI or TS were included based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, with title-abstract and full-text screening.

resultsSixteen studies met the inclusion criteria, all of which focused on MI. Studies were categorized into three key concepts: loneliness (

conclusionsMI has a profound impact on social and emotional well-being, with loneliness and social isolation contributing to severe health outcomes. Further research is needed to understand the impact of these factors on individuals with TS.
