Tackling the ST elevation in leptospirosis: A double-edged sword between bleeding and thrombosis - A case report.

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
Although leptospirosis is a well-recognized zoonotic disease, the occurrence of ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)-mimicking leptospiral myocarditis, accompanied by subsequent bleeding and thrombocytopenia is an exceptionally rare finding. The dual risks of bleeding and thrombosis further complicate the management of anticoagulation and thrombolytic therapy amidst competing risks. The aim of this study was to present leptospirosis complicated by myocarditis, which mimicked STEMI, followed by bleeding and thrombocytopenia. A 61-year-old male patient was referred from a community health center to the hospital with primary complaints of chest discomfort and diaphoresis, which had started 11 hours prior to admission. These symptoms were associated with a 12-day history of intermittent fever, nausea, and vomiting. Upon physical examination, the patient appeared lethargic, with a blood pressure of 86/63 mmHg, heart rate of 107 bpm, respiratory rate of 22 breaths per minute, and temperature of 39.8°C. Electrocardiography revealed widespread ST-segment elevation. Echocardiography showed global hypokinesia with a reduced ejection fraction of 48%. Laboratory tests confirmed the presence of IgM and IgG anti-
