Myocardial Infarction Triggered by Marijuana Use.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Chronic marijuana use has been increasingly linked to cardiovascular events, though reports of acute myocardial infarction in young adults without traditional risk factors remain limited. A 24-year-old man with a 9-year history of daily marijuana use presented with acute chest pain. Emergency evaluation revealed anterior ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction with 100% proximal left anterior descending coronary artery occlusion, treated successfully with percutaneous intervention. Intravascular ultrasound showed isolated plaque rupture in an otherwise normal coronary tree. This case highlights marijuana's potential role in precipitating acute coronary events in young adults without traditional risk factors, supported by intravascular imaging findings.
