Current causes of sudden death in large populations: differences between resuscitated patients and autopsied cases.
Article in European heart journal open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Aims: Aetiologies of sudden death (SD) have been reported in autopsied case series and less frequently in resuscitated patients, but large series are scarce and if causes are similar between deceased and surviving patients is unknown. Methods and results: All successive adult patients with resuscitated SD ( Conclusion: In this large series of resuscitated and autopsied SD cases, coronary artery disease remains the main aetiology but was significantly less frequent in autopsied cases, with a majority of acute coronary events in resuscitated patients vs. a majority of remote myocardial infarction without fresh thrombus in autopsied cases. Noncardiac causes were present in 15% of autopsies but never in surviving patients.
