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

We describe a 35-year-old Caribbean-Black male patient with a significant cannabis history who presented with an inferior ST-segment-elevation acute coronary syndrome (STE-ACS), with advanced heart block during active, ongoing cannabis consumption. During primary percutaneous coronary intervention, cineangiography revealed substantial thrombus burden in the first acute marginal branch of the right coronary artery. He successfully underwent aspiration thrombectomy with subsequent angioplasty with a drug-coated balloon and guideline-directed medical therapy, including direct oral anticoagulation. The clinician should be cognizant of the association between ACS and both acute and chronic cannabis consumption.
