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

Intramyocardial hemorrhage (IMH) is a severe form of post-ischemic microvascular injury that may occur after myocardial infarction, particularly in the setting of extensive ischemia and reperfusion. IMH is closely related to microvascular obstruction (MVO), larger infarct size, impaired left-ventricular (LV) function, and adverse clinical outcomes. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), especially susceptibility-sensitive techniques such as T2* or R2* mapping, enables in vivo detection of hemorrhagic microvascular injury and may refine post-MI risk stratification. Mechanistic and translational studies suggest that erythrocyte degradation and infarct-core iron deposition may contribute to persistent inflammation, maladaptive healing, adverse remodeling, and possibly arrhythmogenic substrate formation. However, most clinical evidence remains observational, and IMH-guided management has not yet been prospectively validated. This narrative review summarizes current evidence on the pathophysiology, imaging diagnosis, prognostic significance, and emerging therapeutic implications of IMH, while highlighting unresolved questions regarding standardized imaging, clinical implementation, and future phenotype-directed therapies.
