Painless Coronary Spastic Angina First Diagnosed Perioperatively: Importance of Spasm Provocation Testing Under Medication to Confirm Optimal Therapy.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2026. 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
A 67-year-old man underwent surgery and, postoperatively, suddenly collapsed and developed ventricular fibrillation. Emergent coronary angiography revealed diffuse narrowing of the coronary arteries, which was reversed with isosorbide dinitrate. We attributed his aborted sudden cardiac death to coronary artery spasm. A transvenous implantable cardioverter defibrillator was implanted following the administration of vasodilators. Two years after implantation, the patient developed ventricular tachycardia, which was terminated by anti-tachycardia pacing. We then performed a spasm provocation test under medication. Intracoronary injection of acetylcholine induced spasm in the coronary artery, although no chest symptoms were observed. We diagnosed the patient with painless coronary spastic angina.
