Cardiac Echinococcosis With Hepatic Involvement in a Child: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Hydatidosis is endemic in Morocco. Cardiac localization of hydatid disease is a rare entity. Involvement of the interventricular septum is even rarer. We report the case of a 6-year-old girl with combined hepatocardiac hydatid disease. She was admitted with complaints of dyspnea, asthenia and vomiting. Ultrasound imaging and CT scan showed cystic lesions in the interventricular septum and in the liver. Serologic test results were positive. According to the biological and radiological findings, the diagnosis of echinococcosis with cardiac and hepatic involvement was suggested. Complete excision of the cardiac cyst was performed followed by anthelminthic treatment with albendazole as a supportive therapy. The confirmative diagnosis of hydatid disease was made by microscopic examination of the removed material. Our patient was referred to the department of general surgery to treat the liver lesions in the future. The postoperative period was unremarkable.
