Sudden Cardiac Arrest in a Young Male: The Role of Intraplaque Hemorrhage and Coronary Spasm.

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
backgroundSudden cardiac death (SCD) is commonly linked to coronary artery disease (CAD), often involving plaque rupture or erosion. Intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) has emerged as a significant factor in SCD. CASE SUMMARY: A 39-year-old man experienced intermittent chest pain before collapsing with ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest. Coronary angiography revealed significant stenosis in the left anterior descending artery. Optical coherence tomography identified IPH. Coronary spasm was confirmed by acetylcholine testing. The patient was treated with percutaneous coronary intervention and long-term medical therapy including antiplatelet therapy and calcium channel blocker, with no adverse events over 3 years. DISCUSSION: This case underscores the importance of recognizing IPH and coronary spasm as contributors to SCD. Recent pathologic findings suggest a notable association between IPH and coronary spasm.
