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

Cardiac lipomas are extremely rare in the heart diseases and only few present with a wide spectrum of clinical signs, including life-threatening arrhythmias and sudden death. We report a 48-year-old woman who with a 2-year history of recurrent dyspnea with mild anemia was admitted to our hospital as a huge mass was found in her mediastinum. After complete surgical tumor resection, she was recurred at the fifth year. This case underlines the giant cardiac lipomas had a slightly higher risk of recurrence over the next five years.
