Non-ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction in a Patient With Dextrocardia.
Article in JACC. 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
backgroundDextrocardia with situs inversus totalis is a rare congenital anomaly that complicates diagnosis and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndromes due to mirror-image anatomy. CASE SUMMARY: A 50-year-old man with situs inversus totalis presented with severe angina, syncope, and markedly elevated troponin (non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction). Initial electrocardiogram (ECG) showed right axis deviation and atypical R-wave progression. Lead reversal confirmed ischemic changes. Coronary angiography revealed complete right coronary artery occlusion and multivessel disease. The right coronary artery was successfully revascularized, achieving TIMI flow grade 3. DISCUSSION: This case illustrates the rare combination of acute coronary syndrome in a patient with situs inversus. It reinforces that standard myocardial infarction management protocols must be applied with necessary, specific anatomical adaptations in both ECG interpretation and PCI technique. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE: Accurate ECG interpretation in dextrocardia requires lead reversal, and successful PCI in situs inversus depends on adaptation of catheter selection and fluoroscopic imaging.
