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

Myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA), despite a lower burden of coronary atherosclerosis, has a non-negligible prognostic impact. The label of MINOCA includes an array of different aetiologies and pathologic conditions, thus the identification of the underlying disease is crucial to patient management. Myocardial infarction with obstructive coronary artery disease and MINOCA share only some risk factors and comorbid conditions. While traditional cardiovascular risk factors have a lower prevalence in MINOCA patients, atypical ones-e.g., anxiety, depression, and autoimmune diseases-are much more frequent in this population. Other conditions-e.g., pregnancy, cancer, and anti-cancer therapy-can predispose to or even induce MINOCA through various mechanisms. The evidence of such risk factors for MINOCA is still scarce and contradicting, as no randomised controlled trials exist in this field. In our work, we performed a review of registries, clinical studies, and case reports of MINOCA, in order to summarise the available data and analyse its possibile pathogenic mechanisms.
