Pleural and pericardial effusions with cardiac conduction system and myocardial involvement: A rare presentation of sarcoidosis.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2022. 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
Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous immune disorder that can infiltrate many organ systems. When the cardiac system is involved, the myocardium and conduction system are frequently affected. We report the case of a patient presenting with complete heart block following cardioversion from atrial flutter accompanied by pleural and pericardial involvement whose diagnosis of sarcoidosis was subsequently made on pathological examination. Pericardial effusion and pleural effusion are rare manifestations of sarcoid, and the both of them happening simultaneously (less than 10 case reports) in conjunction with cardiac conduction system and myocardial involvement are almost nonexistent in the literature (one case report). As cardiac involvement in sarcoid can drastically increase the mortality, it is important to be vigilant for the diverse manifestations of cardiac involvement in all patients for which there is clinical suspicion of sarcoid.
