Cardiac sarcoidosis accompanied by a tumor-like blush on coronary angiography.
Article in Journal of cardiology cases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
A 71-year-old female was diagnosed with cardiac sarcoidosis by a history of complete atrioventricular block requiring pacemaker implantation and a focal thinning of basal interventricular septum (IVS) on echocardiography. Coronary angiography showed a tumor-like blush fed by septal branch of left anterior descending artery and right coronary artery concomitant with a coronary-to-right ventricle shunt. Echocardiography showed a low echoic mass at mid-IVS with an abnormal shunt flow into right ventricle. Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET) showed an uptake at the corresponding site of mid-IVS. Eight months after the initiation of steroid therapy, FDG-PET showed no abnormal uptake at mid-IVS, suggesting decreased activity of cardiac sarcoidosis. We experienced a case of cardiac sarcoidosis with FDG uptake accompanied by a tumor-like blush at mid-IVS. The present case suggests the involvement of microvascular accumulation in the activity of cardiac sarcoidosis. <
