Capecitabine May Accelerate Atherosclerosis and Causes Acute Myocardial Infarction in the Left Main Trunk.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
We report a case of a 59-year-old man who developed acute myocardial infarction which is supposed to be associated with capecitabine administration. At the age of 57 years, the patient underwent a laparoscopic colectomy for sigmoid colon cancer and subsequently received adjuvant chemotherapy with capecitabine. About one year later, he developed an acute myocardial infarction and was treated with percutaneous coronary intervention. He did not demonstrate any coronary risk factors except dyslipidemia, which itself was unlikely to be involved in prominent atherogenesis. Considering the reports so far, we presumed that capecitabine contributed to the progression of atherosclerosis in the present case.
