Precordial pain induced by the isolated cardiac hydatid cyst in interventricular septum: a case report.
Article in Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, 2023. 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
backgroundHuman hydatid disease occurs after infection with Echinococcus granulosus, mainly involves liver and lung, while hydatid involves heart is infrequent. A great majority of hydatid diseases could be asymptomatic, and incidentally found through examination. Here, we reported a woman who suffered an isolated cardiac hydatid cyst located at the interventricular septum. CASE PRESENTATION: A 48-year-old woman presented intermittent chest pain was admitted to the hospital. Imaging examination revealed a cyst located at the interventricular septum near the right ventricular apex. Considering medical history, radiological findings and serological results, cardiac hydatid disease was suspected. The cyst was successfully removed, while pathological biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of infection of Echinococcus granulosus. Postoperative course was uneventful, the patient was discharged from hospital without complications.
conclusionFor symptomatic cardiac hydatid cyst, surgical resection is necessary to avoid progression of disease. During surgical procedure, appropriate methods to reduce the potential risk of hydatid cyst metastasis are essential. Besides surgery, combined with regular drug therapy is an effective strategy to prevent reappearance.
