Ecstasy-Induced Acute Myocardial Infarction Unraveled by Multimodality Imaging.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A case of a 36-year-old male with no known comorbidities presented because of chest discomfort after using ecstasy and was noted to have an evolving anteroseptal myocardial infarction (MI). Left heart catheterization showed mild obstructive coronary disease with red thrombus in the proximal left anterior descending (LAD) artery seen on optical coherence tomography (OCT) and with note of improvement and decrease in thrombus burden on repeat coronary angiogram the next day after starting the patient on eptifibatide. Echocardiogram revealed mildly reduced systolic function with an apical akinesis. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) showed a small-sized infarct involving the apical inferior, apical lateral, and basal septum, with myocardial edema at the apex and septum, and a note of a small apical clot. He improved significantly during his course and was maintained on ticagrelor, apixaban, and atorvastatin.
