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

backgroundEmbolic stroke is a common complication of atrial myxoma, whereas multiple cerebral aneurysms associated with atrial myxoma is rare. The pathogenesis of the cerebral vascular disease related to an atrial myxoma is still not well known, and there are no guidelines to guide treatment and anesthesia management in such patients. CASE PRESENTATION: In this report, we present a 38-year-old woman with occasional dizziness and headache diagnosed as multiple cerebral fusiform aneurysms, in whom transthoracic echocardiography revealed a mass attached to the interatrial septum in the left atrium. Myxoma resection was performed in fast track cardiac surgery pathway without neurological complications, and no intervention was carried out on the cerebral aneurysms. She was discharged home 6 days after the procedure for followed-up. Furthermore, we reviewed and analyzed the literature in the PubMed and Google Scholar databases in order to conclude the optimal treatment in such cases.

conclusionsAtrial myxoma-related cerebral aneurysms are always multiple and in a fusiform shape in most occasions. Early resection of myxoma and conservative therapy of aneurysm is an optimal treatment. TEE and PbtO
