Intravascular Germ Cell Tumor With Cardiac and Bilateral Pulmonary Artery Involvement.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundGerm cell tumors (GCTs) are neoplasms usually originating in the gonads, most often affecting young patients. Intravascular GCTs are exceptionally rare and potentially fatal due to cardiac and embolic complications. CASE SUMMARY: A 17-year-old patient presented with weight loss, abdominal pain, and dyspnea. Imaging revealed an intravascular mass extending from the inferior vena cava (IVC) into the right heart chambers and pulmonary arteries. The tumor was successfully removed via surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass. Histopathologic diagnosis was a mixed non-seminomatous GCT. Recovery was uneventful, and follow-up imaging showed no intravascular lesions. Cisplatin-based chemotherapy was started with curative intent. DISCUSSION: Intravascular GCT is a rare phenomenon, presenting mostly with retroperitoneal disease affecting the IVC. Cardiologists assess complications and interpret cardiovascular imaging. A multidisciplinary approach is crucial for improving outcomes.
