Hyperventilation-Induced Coronary Vasospasm in an Asthmatic Patient With ST-Segment Elevation and Intramyocardial Hematoma.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 2026. 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
backgroundCoronary vasospasm may lead to myocardial injury even in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease. Diagnostic clarity can be enhanced through multimodality imaging and appropriate provocation testing. CASE SUMMARY: We present a case of a 64-year-old man who developed transient ST-segment elevations during an asthma exacerbation. Coronary angiography showed nonobstructive disease, whereas echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging revealed an intramyocardial hematoma. Hyperventilation provocation testing, both invasive and noninvasive, confirmed coronary vasospasm. Optical coherence tomography demonstrated multilayered, healed plaques. The patient was also diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis, which may have played a contributory role. DISCUSSION: To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of concurrent coronary vasospasm, intramyocardial hematoma, and active tuberculosis. This case report highlights the diagnostic value of hyperventilation testing when acetylcholine is unavailable. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: Intramyocardial hematoma may result from recurrent vasospasm induced by asthma-related hyperventilation, with tuberculosis as a possible contributing factor. Hyperventilation testing may be a practical alternative for diagnosing coronary vasospasm when acetylcholine is unavailable.
