Alcohol-Induced Cardiomyopathy Presenting With a Ventricular Arrhythmia Storm Causing Cardiac Arrest.
Article in Cureus, 2025. 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
Alcohol has both protective and deleterious effects on the heart. Alcohol consumed in small quantities can have cardiovascular protective effects. However, consumption of excessive amounts of alcohol has been associated with electrolyte imbalances, neurologic disorders like Wernicke's encephalopathy and Korsakoff syndrome, cardiomyopathies, cardiac arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. We present and discuss the diagnosis and management of a 26-year-old male patient with a history of alcohol use disorder who presented to our center with alcohol-induced cardiomyopathy causing a ventricular arrhythmia storm and cardiac arrest. This case highlights the approach to cardiopulmonary resuscitation, describes the diagnosis using electrocardiogram, echocardiogram, and coronary angiogram, medical management of this patient by the Intensivist, and interventions to improve clinical outcome, assist with alcohol cessation, and medical strategies to prevent future occurrences of cardiac events and alcohol related co-morbidities. It is important to recognize that in patients with no other risk factors for cardiac disease, prompt recognition and management, including cessation of alcohol consumption, has been associated with good outcomes and prognosis.
