Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Metastasizing to the Heart: A Case Report from Taiwan.
Article in Cancer management and research, 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
Background: The most common sites for metastasis from head and neck cancers are the lungs, bones, and liver. We present a rare case of squamous cell carcinoma of the buccal mucosa that metastasized to the right ventricle, pericardium, and bilateral lungs. Methods: A 61-year-old man with oral squamous cell carcinoma (cT4aN2cM0) exhibited mass-like echogenicity adhering to the right ventricular free wall that was accidentally discovered after concurrent chemoradiotherapy. A biopsy of the mass confirmed the oral origin of the metastasis. Results: The patient received palliative care and died 1 month after being diagnosed with cardiac involvement. Conclusion: Cardiac involvement is often not assessed because of its low prevalence. Cardiac metastasis should be considered in patients with malignancies presenting with nonspecific cardiac symptoms.
