Takotsubo cardiomyopathy in an infant with acute mediastinitis following cardiovascular surgery: An unusual diagnosis and successful management.
Article in Annals of pediatric cardiology. 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
Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a rare cause of ventricular dysfunction in children, commonly associated with neurological injury and emotional stress. After cardiac surgery, ventricular dysfunction may result from cardiopulmonary bypass-related myocardial stunning; however, other causes, including TTS, may develop days or weeks after surgical procedures. Stress factors can have multiple etiologies; rarely, sepsis is the triggering factor in infants following cardiac surgery. We present the case of a 5-month-old girl who, 2 weeks after ventricular septal defect repair, developed infectious mediastinitis secondary to a deep surgical site infection, with echocardiographic findings consistent with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy.
