Clinical and Imaging Findings in 504 Cases With Left Ventricular Pseudoaneurysm Following Myocardial Infarction: A Comprehensive Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Review in Cardiology research and practice, 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: Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm (LVPA) is a rare but life-threatening complication of myocardial infarction (MI). We pooled clinical and imaging findings of post-MI LVPA reported in case reports/series and compared them with findings in post-MI left ventricular aneurysm (LVA). Method: We comprehensively searched the literature published since 1991 on online databases. Individual-level patient data (IPD) and aggregated-level data (AD) studies were combined through a two-stage meta-analysis method. Results: We identified 379 eligible articles on LVPA ( Conclusion: LVPA is probably located on the posterior and inferior segments in most patients, contrary to LVA, which mainly involves the anterior and apical segments. Arrhythmia is likely a common clinical finding in LVA but not LVPA. Echocardiography may not always detect LVPA in 20% of patients.
