1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Adenosine is a well-known product in the field of cardiology, known to cause coronary vasodilation. However, in rare cases, it has been associated with coronary vasoconstriction. In this case-the first to our knowledge-we have demonstrated that adenosine could be the cause of microvascular coronary spasms, based on the symptoms, ECG, and coronary functional assessments. Additionally, we have linked this case with a transient prolonged QT and mild dilated left ventricle, which was further investigated with a loop recorder and genetic testing revealing variants in the LMNA gene and PRKAG2 gene. This case also emphasizes that physicians should always take into account unexpected side effects during standard procedures.
