Myocarditis: A Rare Cardiac Manifestation of Antiphospholipid Syndrome.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 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
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is known for thrombotic events and pregnancy complications, but its association with myocarditis is rare and poorly understood. A 44-year-old woman presented with acute chest tightness, elevated cardiac biomarkers, and severe anemia. Diagnostic workup revealed ST-segment changes on electrocardiogram, preserved left ventricular function on echocardiography, and myocardial inflammation on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, suggestive of acute myocarditis. Positive antiphospholipid antibodies confirmed APS. She was managed with close multidisciplinary follow-up. APS-associated myocarditis poses diagnostic challenges because of its atypical presentation and overlap with other cardiac conditions. This case highlights the role of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosing myocarditis early, guiding management strategies, and the need for heightened clinical suspicion in APS patients presenting with cardiac symptoms.
