Use of OCT Imaging in the Treatment of Right Coronary Artery Occlusion Causing NSTEMI as an Initial Complication of Essential Thrombocythaemia.
Article in Case reports in cardiology, 2026. 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
Background: Essential thrombocythaemia (ET) is a chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm characterised by clonal thrombocytosis and an overall increased risk of thrombotic events. Acute coronary syndrome as an initial presentation of ET is rare in the literature. Case Summary: A 39 year old woman with established ET presented with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Coronary angiography revealed a hazy, eccentric mid-right coronary artery lesion. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) demonstrated thrombus without atherosclerotic plaque. OCT-guided direct stenting achieved optimal expansion with thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) Grade III flow. She was discharged on dual antiplatelet therapy and referred to haematology for ET management. At three months, she remained asymptomatic on clinic follow-up. Conclusion: OCT provided diagnostic and procedural guidance in a rare thrombotic NSTEMI secondary to ET. This case highlights the role of intracoronary imaging in differentiating thrombosis from atherosclerotic plaque rupture.
