Extensive intracardiac thrombi in a patient with heart failure and hepatic congestion: a case report.
Article in European heart journal. Case reports, 2019. 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
backgroundLeft ventricular (LV) thrombi is a complication associated with anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction, dilated cardiomyopathies, or LV aneurysms. Right sided intracardiac thrombi may be associated with other prothrombotic causes. CASE SUMMARY: A 66-year-old man admitted with congestive heart failure was found to have extensive intracardiac masses on transthoracic echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This occurred in the absence of a recent myocardial infarction. During his hospital stay, he was found to have deranged liver enzymes and coagulation profile due to hepatic congestion. The patient was presumed to have intracardiac thrombi and was treated with warfarin therapy. There was complete resolution of the masses on repeat cardiac MRI after 4 weeks of treatment, confirming the diagnosis. DISCUSSION: Cardiac MRI is useful in the diagnosis of intracardiac thrombi. Clinicians should appreciate the prothrombotic risks associated with liver disease, despite the inability of standard coagulation tests to quantify this risk.
