Cardiac angiosarcoma with metastatic to lung, brain, and bone.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Cardiac angiosarcoma is a malignant tumor derived from vascular endothelium with a dismal prognosis. The imaging findings of cardiac angiosarcoma are nonspecific and endomyocardial and pericardial biopsies have insufficient accuracy. For these reasons, the diagnosis is sometimes difficult. Primary and metastatic tumors tend to bleed easily, causing hemoptysis and neurological symptoms. Brain metastases are not often known to be fatal when they cause hemorrhage. We report a 27-year-old man diagnosed with right atrium angiosarcoma, with metastases in the lung, brain, and bone. The patient had only respiratory symptoms at the first visit and did not show any symptoms derived from brain metastases yet died after 27 days due to hemorrhage from brain metastases. If brain metastasis from angiosarcoma is suspected based on imaging findings, urgent radiotherapy should be considered before histological examination for a definitive diagnosis.
