Article in Vascular specialist international, 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
Uterine intravascular leiomyomatosis (IVL) with extension into the right heart is uncommon, with no more than 400 cases reported in the literature since 1907. The present study aims to report three patients with intracardiac IVL surgically treated in our institution, with long-term follow-up. Three female patients in their third to fifth decades of life, with a history of difficult hysterectomy due to extensive myomatosis, presented with symptoms of right-sided heart failure. Echocardiography and computed tomography were performed, where IVL extending from the pelvis into the right heart was observed. All three patients underwent a one-stage operation under extracorporeal circulation through a right auriculotomy and inferior vena cavotomy, accessed via a sterno-laparotomy. The tumors were extirpated without complications, with ligation of the vena cava or iliac vein. The patients at 10-, 13-, and 37-year follow-up were well and alive with mild lower extremities symptoms.
