Inferior Wall STEMI in a Young Patient-A Sequela of Phentermine and Smoking.
Article in Journal of community hospital internal medicine perspectives, 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
Amphetamine use is associated with increasing rates of cardiovascular risks, such as pulmonary hypertension, arrhythmias, and atherosclerosis. A 47-year-old woman experienced an inferior MI after taking the weight loss drug phentermine. She presented with chest pain, shortness of breath, and vomiting. Initial examination showed low blood pressure and slow heart rate. Subsequent tests revealed elevated cardiac enzyme levels and ST elevations on EKG. A coronary angiogram showed a blockage in the right coronary artery. She underwent a successful procedure to open the artery. The case highlights the heightened cardiovascular risks associated with amphetamine use, even in individuals without existing heart conditions. Research and clinical guidelines are crucial for better prediction, diagnosis, and management of such complications.
