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
backgroundPregnancy-associated spontaneous coronary artery dissection (p-SCAD) is the leading cause of pregnancy-associated myocardial infarction. CASE SUMMARY: A 32-year-old woman, G1P0, with gestational hypertension underwent cesarean delivery of twins, conceived with assisted reproductive technology. Because of uterine atony, she had postpartum hemorrhage requiring uterotonics and blood transfusion. She additionally tested positive for non-COVID coronavirus. On postoperative day 3, an electrocardiogram in the context of acute chest pain showed inferior and anterolateral ST-segment elevations. Coronary angiogram demonstrated type 2 SCAD of the left anterior descending artery and ostial second diagonal. Ejection fraction was mildly reduced (45%-50%) with apical hypokinesis. She was managed medically. Cross-sectional head to pelvis imaging was negative for fibromuscular dysplasia, aneurysm, and other dissections. DISCUSSION: To our knowledge, this is the first described case of p-SCAD after postpartum hemorrhage. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE: Etiologic assessment of SCAD should include hormonal, hemodynamic, and inflammatory stressors, whose roles remain incompletely understood but likely synergistic.
