Bizarre intravascular leiomyoma with intracardiac extension starting in the ovarian vein: a case report from Syria.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 2024. 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
Intravascular leiomyoma (IVL) with intracardiac extension (ICE) represents an exceedingly rare diagnosis of a cardiac mass. We present the case of a 42-year-old woman with recurrent syncopal episodes. Cardiac investigations revealed an extensive, mobile mass stretching from the inferior vena cava (IVC) through the right heart to the bifurcation of the pulmonary artery. Emergent surgery was conducted to excise the mass. Post-operative assessment indicated a potential malignancy in the adnexa. A subsequent surgery to resect the uterus with the adnexa, the primary origin of the mass, confirmed the diagnosis of IVL with ICE. The initial diagnostic ambiguity and the urgent pulmonary artery involvement necessitated a two-step surgical approach. Despite the propensity for recurrence, a 5-year follow-up remained unremarkable. This case underscores the importance of considering IVL with ICE in the differential diagnosis, which can expedite both diagnosis and treatment.
