Another Chest Pain Ruled Out: A Typical Story With an Atypical Finding on a Chest X-ray (CXR) Leading to an Uncommon Diagnosis.
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
Epicardial fat necrosis is an uncommon cause of chest pain that mimics pericarditis, pulmonary embolism, and/or coronary syndrome. This is a case of a 55-year-old female patient presenting with left-sided pleuritic chest pain. She had a normal exam and vital signs. Diagnostics showed a non-ischemic electrocardiogram with a negative troponin, an elevated D-dimer, and a chest radiograph showed an opacity along the left cardiac border. Computed tomography-pulmonary angiography (CT-PA) was performed and showed a 4.2 x 1.8 x 3.0 cm lesion, surrounded by a hyperdense ring of high attenuation with fat stranding, which diagnosed epicardial fat necrosis.
