Right Ventricular Myxoma Involving the Chordae Tendineae: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 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
This case report describes a rare instance of massive right ventricular myxoma (RVM). A 36-year-old woman initially presented with progressive breathlessness and chest heaviness. Imaging revealed a large mass in the mediastinum, which was initially thought to be a pericardial cyst, and it was unclear whether the mass was intracardiac or extracardiac. Extensive investigations and multiple discussions concluded that the mass was a right ventricular mass. Intraoperatively, the mass was confirmed to be in the right ventricle (RV), with involvement of the chordae tendineae and an extremely thinned-out right ventricular free wall. Surgical excision of the tumour from the RV, tricuspid valve repair, and plication of the free wall were performed, leading to significant symptomatic relief. The mass was identified as a myxoma through histological diagnosis. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges and management strategies for RVM.
