1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundWe report a rare case of a giant right atrial myxoma after catheter ablation. CASE PRESENTATION: A 74-year-old man presented with a fever of unknown origin three years after laser catheter ablation. Multimodal imaging revealed a giant tumor located in the right atrium, which was suspected to be malignant. Surgical resection was performed, and pathological examination revealed that the tumor was a myxoma.

conclusionsSeveral cardiac myxoma cases after catheter ablation have been reported, suggesting a potential association between myxoma development and catheter ablation-related tissue injury.
