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 calcified amorphous tumors are rare non-neoplastic intracavitary masses. Herein, we report a case of a 75-year-old woman who presented with dyspnea on exertion and multiple cerebral infarctions 3 months prior. Transthoracic echocardiography showed severe mitral regurgitation from the posterior mitral leaflet with valve perforation and severe mitral annular calcification. In addition, we observed a 13 mm mobile high echogenic mass, suggesting healed infective endocarditis. The mass was successfully resected, and the mitral valve was replaced with a bovine pericardial patch for the decalcified annulus. Histopathological examination confirmed cardiac calcified amorphous tumor; the postoperative course was uneventful. Mitral valve replacement and annulus patch repair effectively prevented postoperative recurrent systemic embolization. <
