Biatrial myxoma floating like a butterfly: A case report and review of the literature.
Review in Medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
rationaleMyxoma is the most common type of primary benign cardiac tumor in adults. The left atrium is the most frequent site of origin followed by the right atrium. Biatrial myxoma is extremely rare. PATIENT CONCERNS: We present a case of a 60-year-old woman with biatrial myxoma, who presented with palpitations for one month. DIAGNOSES: Echocardiography revealed an irregular homogeneous mass in the left atrium and in the right atrium, and were connected via the fossa ovalis suspiciously. Computed tomography angiography revealed a hypo-intense mass in both atria.
interventionsThe tumors were successfully removed by surgical excision and histological analysis confirmed the diagnosis. OUTCOMES: The patient was discharged one week after surgery, and did not experience recurrence during the two years follow-up period. LESSONS: Biatrial myxoma is rare. Surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment and there is no recurrence reported. The clinical data and the features on echocardiogram of biatrial myxoma are reviewed, providing important clinical information for the pre-operative diagnosis and intraoperative removal of biatrial myxoma.
