Pancoast Tumor With Cardiac Metastases and Intracardiac Thrombosis.
Article in Journal of investigative medicine high impact case reports. 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
Pancoast tumor is a rare and aggressive form of lung cancer; cardiac metastasis is very uncommon. We present a case of advanced Pancoast tumor, with extensive cardiac metastases and intracardiac thrombosis in a woman presenting with dyspnea, shoulder pain, and weight loss. A contrast-enhanced chest computed tomographic scan revealed an apical mass, metastatic thoracic nodes, and filling defects within both ventricles. Further imaging with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging revealed 2 left ventricular masses infiltrating into the myocardium suggestive of metastatic disease, and a multilobulated mass within the right ventricle suggestive of intracardiac thrombus. She was initiated on anticoagulation for intracardiac thrombosis. Surgical pathology of biopsied tissue samples was consistent with advanced metastatic lung adenocarcinoma. She was a poor candidate for surgical intervention. Given the patient's goals of care, she was ultimately transitioned to comfort care.
