Myocardial infarction and pulmonary embolism in pancreatic cancer: a case report of two manifestations of Trousseau's syndrome.
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 3 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
Introduction: The simultaneous occurrence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) is rare and often associated with underlying malignancies. This study reports a rare case of concurrent AMI and pulmonary thromboembolism in a patient diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Case presentation: A 70-year-old woman presented with acute chest pain and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, prompting immediate percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the deployment of a drug-eluting stent. Following PCI, she was treated with optimal medical therapy, including dual antiplatelet therapy. Subsequent investigations revealed pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, and imaging findings suggestive of pancreatic cancer. Anticoagulation therapy was initiated to manage the VTE. Approximately 1 month after PCI, antithrombotic agents were temporarily discontinued for pancreatic mass biopsy, confirming pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The patient was referred for palliative chemotherapy. Discussion: This case highlights the clinical manifestation of Trousseau's syndrome, characterized by cancer-associated thromboembolism, and underscores the importance of coordinated antithrombotic management in complex clinical settings.
