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 without obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) comprises up to 15% of all myocardial infarctions (MI) and could be caused by cardiac microembolization (CME) originating from plaque rupture and/or erosion. Early diagnosis remains a challenge due to limited early biomarkers, leading to high morbidity. Here, we have systematically characterized acute (up to 5 h) CME-induced MINOCA in comparison to MI using clinical markers, histology, multi-ELISAs, miRNA profiling, and proteomics in a translational porcine animal model. CME-induced MINOCA model was created by injecting autologous microthrombi, generated by carotid crush maneuver, into the coronary arteries, whereas MI was induced by LAD balloon occlusion/reperfusion. MINOCA animals exhibited low troponin (547.0 ± 489.2 ng/L) and creatine kinase (1827.8 ± 677.3 U/L) levels, as well as infarct size (2.3 ± 0.8%), necrosis (7.6 ± 3.2%), and interstitial hemorrhage (0.6 ± 0.4%). Immune cell infiltration surrounding MINOCA microthrombi sites was significantly higher (1532 ± 722 cells/mm
