Takotsubo Syndrome in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome or Myocarditis.
Article in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 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
Stress cardiomyopathy/Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a transient cardiac condition characterized by sudden and reversible left ventricular dysfunction, typically triggered by emotional or physical stress. The international TTS (InterTAK) score predicts the probability of suffering from TTS. However, the diagnostic algorithm includes three mutually exclusive diagnoses: acute coronary syndrome (ACS), TTS, and acute infectious myocarditis. Thus, we propose to include the conditions in which TTS is associated with ACS or myocarditis. While TTS is commonly associated with non-ischemic stressors, recent evidence has indicated that TTS can be found in patients with ACS. Nonetheless, in some cases, ACS may trigger rather than exclude TTS. Additionally, TTS could also prompt plaque ruptures in coronary arteries. Meanwhile, infections and conditions that cause myocarditis can also produce physical stress that may trigger TTS. Furthermore, TTS has been reported after confirmed viral myocarditis. This opinion article explores the intricate relationships between (i) TTS and ACS, and (ii) TTS and myocarditis, delving into the related pathophysiologies and diagnostic challenges. However, further research is required to elucidate the mechanisms that link TTS with these conditions.
