Resolution of reverse takotsubo cardiomyopathy secondary to presumed pheochromocytoma with intralesional hemorrhage.
Article in JCEM case reports, 2026. 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 38-year-old woman with a history of migraine headaches presented with episodic headaches, palpitations, chest pain, and worsening dyspnea. On arrival, she was hypertensive and tachycardic. Electrocardiography demonstrated inferolateral ST-segment depressions, QT interval prolongation, and elevated troponin levels, raising concern for acute myocardial infarction. Emergent coronary angiography revealed normal coronary arteries, while left ventriculography demonstrated basal hypokinesis with apical hyperkinesis, consistent with reverse takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Abdominal computed tomography identified a 3 cm right adrenal nodule, and 24-hour urine metanephrine levels were elevated to >8× the upper limit of normal, suggestive of pheochromocytoma. The patient was managed conservatively with alpha-adrenergic blockade. Follow-up abdominal magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a decrease in nodule size to 2.3 cm with evidence of intralesional hemorrhage, and catecholamine levels subsequently normalized, leading to deferral of adrenalectomy. At 6-month follow-up, transthoracic echocardiography showed normalization of left ventricular function, and repeat abdominal computed tomography revealed marked reduction in the adrenal mass. At 1 year, she remains asymptomatic with normal biochemical testing.
