Case Report: A case of third-degree atrioventricular block associated with primary cardiac lymphoma.
Article in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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: Primary cardiac lymphoma is an extremely rare malignant lymphoma, with clinical manifestations related to its location. We reported the diagnosis and treatment of primary cardiac lymphoma in a patient presented with atrioventricular block. Case presentation: A 64 year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of symptoms of a tired heart and shortness of breath. The initial electrocardiogram revealed a third-degree atrioventricular block. Computed tomography scan showed an irregularly shaped right heart, irregular clusters, and relatively weakly enhanced areas in the right auricle, atrium, and ventricle. The local boundary between the lesion, pericardium, and left atrium was unclear, and the ventricular septum was irregular and thickened. Multiple irregular gray neoplasms with less smooth surfaces were observed, with a maximum diameter of approximately 7 cm. Pathological findings confirmed a non-germinal center B cell subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. After surgical resection of the tumor and implantation of a permanent pacemaker, the symptoms of the patient were significantly improved, allowing subsequent chemotherapy. Conclusion: Surgical resection and placement of a permanent pacemaker were effective treatments for a patient with primary cardiac lymphoma presented with atrioventricular block.
