Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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/
aimSpontaneous recanalization of coronary thrombus (SRCT) is a rare in vivo appearance, with a nonspecific angiographic aspect. The aim of this study was to investigate the importance of optical coherence tomography (OCT) use for SRCT identification, characterization of pathogenic mechanisms and optimal treatment. PATIENTS AND
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed all patients with angiographic suspicion of SRCT who underwent coronary angiography for suspected coronary artery disease and afterward investigated by OCT imaging.
resultsWe identified 28 cases with angiographic suspicion of SCRT (0.41% of CA) and confirmed it in 4 patients (0.05% of CA). OCT provided insight about the underlying SRCT mechanism: possible complicated atherosclerotic plaques in two cases and, respectively, spontaneous coronary artery dissection in other two cases. OCT provided accurate lesion assessment and offered optimal PCI materials selection.
conclusionBesides providing the diagnosis, OCT also improved characterization of SRCT pathogenic mechanisms, in the four confirmed SRCT cases, supporting the role of coronary wall in situ complications, namely dissection of an atherosclerotic plaque or spontaneous dissection of a normal coronary wall.
