Radical Pericardiectomy for Pericardial Diseases.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purpose of reviewThe surgical management of constrictive pericarditis has evolved from a partial pericardiectomy via a thoracotomy approach to a more extensive removal of the pericardium. This review summarizes the published studies regarding surgical management of pericardial disease, focusing on the surgical technique of radical pericardiectomy for constrictive pericarditis. RECENT
findingsAnterior phrenic to phrenic resection without the use of cardiopulmonary bypass has been performed in many centers. This approach achieves improvement in symptoms; however, there are patients who have progressive constriction of the remaining pericardium requiring a completion pericardiectomy. Recent studies show that the survival and functional outcome is superior after a complete pericardiectomy. Our approach is to perform a complete pericardiectomy using cardiopulmonary bypass. In experienced centers, the outcomes have significantly improved with careful selection of patients, advances in pre- and postoperative care, and refinement in surgical techniques.
