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

A 1-year and 4-month-old neutered male shar-pei dog was brought to the emergency department for evaluation of pericardial effusion and a suspected cardiac mass. The presence of a mass with adhesions to the pericardium, right auricle, and right vzentricle was confirmed through computed tomography, thoracic radiography, and echocardiography. The mass was surgically excised and diagnosed through histopathology as a myxoma or low-grade myxosarcoma with mineralization and osseous metaplasia. This case report describes the diagnostic tests completed, the surgical excision, and the outcomes of a rare cardiac neoplasia in an uncommon location. Key clinical message: This report describes the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and surgical management of an intrapericardial extracardiac myxosarcoma in a dog with cardiac tamponade. This rare type of neoplasia should be considered as a differential diagnosis in dogs with intrapericardial masses. Surgical excision of these masses should be considered as a treatment option in applicable cases.
